I just saw a nifty handheld unit with a field strength meter and 
built-in Yagi antenna for about $300 in the November 2004 copy of QST 
(magazine of the American Radio Relay League). It can be used to sniff 
out WAPs, locate weak spots in the wireless coverage scheme, and 
probably locate wireless cameras (and operating microwave ovens :-) that 
operate in the same spectrum.
