Thanks.

hi,
Look thru this link.
or Google microwave diodes

ASI: Microwave Diodes

I wouldn't bother anyway - those cheap 'detectors' are just a toy, they are so inaccurate as to be completely useless.

This series is a good choice, although they've been around for a while and there may be something newer out there.
