I'd like to see the results of the test with the sensitive. It seems that everyone who has claimed to be able to use the box has also said they were psychic/sensitive.
Chip Coffey is going to write an article about it for the next Haunted Times Magazine. Should be interesting...
Quote from SIP: "What do you think the first people who listened to an EVP said? I'm sure it wasn't, "WOW! Great capture!"
Actually Sony said "why the hell are so many people getting "other" people talking on the backgrounds on this model" (of digital recorder)..."Take it back to the shop and rework the codex"! They no longer manufacture the orginal model...It was the best e.v.p. capturer in 2003..(they actually did have too many complants, of people talking in the background)
Now, I'm not saying I agree with everything that comes out of the box, but I am saying we shouldn't dismiss it without looking at it further.
I'm also not suggesting that we would present it as evidence to a client or to the public. As we all know, it's hard for the public to accept solid evidence. This just wouldn't fly. How can anything we do really be validated?
It is does work, though, maybe eventually it can be perfected. Nothing is solid in this field. Everything has to start somewhere. What do you think the first people who listened to an EVP said? I'm sure it wasn't, "WOW! Great capture!"
Frank is still out there, still making the boxes. He just chose to stop working with HTM. As you said, the box will work anywhere, not just haunted places and that's part of Frank's frustration.
Frank has a yahoo group. Go look it up and look at the work that many people are doing with AM signals. EVP has a frequency. Why is it so hard to believe that voices from beyond may come through on a radio frequency, but its not so hard for people to believe that EVP comes through the air onto a tape recorder??
Random signals do not answer questions! You should have heard the voices coming through later on, after this part was videotaped. The box very clearly gave us names associated with the house and names of people who were there. It answered questions that we were asking.
Don't knock it til you have a chance to experience it in action!
Please tell me something about this box. Who is Frank? is the purpose of it to communicate with spirits? How does it work? Does it serve the same purpose as a Ouija board but only high tech?
Haha! That's about me! I am Amy! This is the session that I had blogged about before the site went down! This is the first time I have heard this part of the session cause I was upstairs at the time.
At the same time as this was happening, I was upstairs in the library with a few people. We saw orbs with our eyes and got them on video. Unfortunately, the video camera we recorded it on was Chris' and I haven't been able to get a copy of it!
I walked in at the end of the recording session, at around 16 minutes. I wonder if the guy got the second half of the session? I'll have to ask.
