My old Bonanza had some sort of a "Transponder sniffer" traffic device that was probably from the 1980's - whenever it sensed a transponder nearby a red light flashed and there was a warning tone. It had HI-LOW sensitivity, you kept it on HI, then if you got an alert switched it to LOW. If you got another alert, you knew the other plane was closing on you. It sure did keep your head on swivel when it alerted - Good times...
