Start with a bandpass filter with a 3 dB bandwith for each of the
given band and give it's own filter and whip antenna so you have a
total of 8 filters, or one for each band. An 8 pole bandpass filter
will work well, then route the initially isolated signals into a
dedicated low noise amplifiers suitable for driving a detector diode.
Take the detected signal, and drive the chart recorder or amplifier.

It is virtually impossible for a GSM bug to hide from this, but you
would well advised to use duplicates of these filters installed in
banks to give you some indication of the space domain.

You have also use broadband filters to cut up the rest of the
spectrum into small segments of interest as give them the extra
channels on the chart recorder.
