I'm waiting for cheap flat-panel displays for desktop computers to arrive, because they will probably be almost impossible to detect usably by Tempest systems.

Does Tempest detects only the emission from the electron gun in the monitor or can it get a usable "lock" on some other signals generated within a computer? As an example, can it grab the keystrokes? If the answer is yes, can it do it: a) rarely b) occasionally c) most of the time d) almost all of the time e) never Could somebody knowledgeable in Tempest can rate the various emissions from a computer? (such as: keyboard, COM port, modem, lpt, video signal(from the card), disk write, monitor emission, network comms, etc) Ciao JFA Just curious...
