Tips on better communication.

July 13th, 2011 by Arwin John.

 

1. For the ghost box to operate properly, a good signal is a must.  As long as there are stations picked up in one's area, the ghost box will work whether AM or FM is used.  AM stations tend to give more human voice fragments, while FM will typically have more music.  This does not matter, as we were able to receive plenty of messages with both bands. 

 

1. If a signal is weak, look to try and strengthen the antenna. If using FM, you may be able to simply lengthen the antenna or place it higher for better reception.

 

1. When using the ghost box, I recommend taking notes and recording all sessions.  Many times messages will be received that will not be detected "live."  Other times, live messages will easily be heard and can be replied to.  It is good to ask plenty of questions, but allow reasonable amounts of time for answers, such as 20 seconds.  Often we found we were speaking over the spirit voices and their messages, so sometimes it is good to just listen.  Later, the audio can be reviewed during playback.  Experiment and be patient with yourself and the spirits.  Over time, you will receive messages and have what we call a "time of proving."  When a credible message is received that is beyond the realm of random chance of occurring, you will be convinced that two-way communication is occurring with your ghost box.

 

1. We found the best way to record the ghost box sessions is with a simple hand-held digital recorder which can be purchased at an electronics store.  Place the recorder near the ghost box, but be sure the volume of the ghost box is not too loud or your recording will be ruined.  Practice will show you what volume to set the ghost box at for the best recording results.  The digital recorder should be able to record both the ghost box and your voice while asking questions.  Shorter recordings work best, as they allow for easier editing and especially the dissemination of recording sessions into sections.  Longer recordings make it much more difficult to "find" certain sections, while having several recordings of a couple minutes length each make it much easier to sort through, especially if good notes are taken. 

 

1. After recording your sessions with the ghost box, you will want to upload the audio to a computer.  Your digital recorder should have come with software and a USB cord to do this process quite easily. Once the recordings are on your computer, downloading a free or inexpensive audio editor should do the trick for analyzing and editing your files (Audacity, Wave Pad, etc).  Your recordings will not need to be over-adjusted.  Using a decent pair of headphones, listen to the file and work through it slowly.  Sometimes it is necessary to increase the volume level of the file to hear it better, but only if the volume of the ghost box was too low during the ghost box session.  When detecting what seems to be a message within the audio file, simply cut the section out from the rest of the audio and listen to it closer.  If a message is indeed there, we prefer trimming out irrelevant audio fragments to shorten and clean-up the message. If some of the messages are very fast, making them harder to discern, we recommend slowing the audio down a bit to help in hearing it clearer.  Of course, this usually means the volume of the audio file will have to be increased a bit, too.  After practice and a good connection with the spirit realm is established, the frequency of spirit messages will elevate.  Be prepared to be amazed at the amount of messages some of your sessions will yield ! 

    

   1. The more one uses these devices the better the contact seems to become with the other side.  At times, it seems that perhaps other spirits are even brought to communicate with the ghost box user.

       

      1. Locations can play a big part in the amount, as well as the type of messages received through the ghost box, especially with Earthbound spirits as they sometimes seem attached to a location.

       

      1. Bringing it to a supposed haunted location seems to fire it up and makes it a lot more active. I found that in a lot of situations.

       

      1. Now as to the limitations of the box, radio method boxes are limited to the location you are in. You’re not always going to be able to get a good signal. Say for example, if you are in a basement. So if you’re in the basement where the activity is and you turn the box on and you don’t have a radio signal, then you don’t have anything.

       

      1. Remember that whoever we are speaking with is mostly likely not a professional at communicating either. We can’t expect that whatever device we turn on, that it’s going to be full word clear sentences, it’s not possible. If we do not edit to get the full message clearly, they will eventually just give up on us because we are expecting them to do all the work and for us to do minimal at best.

       

      1. Common sense has to come into play, if a section doesn’t belong, and is obvious it’s a fragment or piece of white noise just get rid of it. As long as you keep the file moving in the same  direction without cutting and pasting words to fit your situation, it only makes sense to make sense

       

      1. The personalities of the ghosts or spirits will vary and may be found to be very loving to extremely negative, or anything in-between.

Something to think about.

can we say on the other hand that we are talking to spirits for sure ? Can we say that they are who they say they are ? If I were them, and wanted to have a good time, I could say I am so and so and let you run to the library looking up all sorts of records ☺  I don’t know where they are. Are they on a parallel universe to us ? It’s possible. Are there different levels ? I’m sure there are. I’ve gotten that several times where  they say they are on different levels. The longer you are gone the more you move up on the levels. Sometimes I ask for someone, and it takes a long time like they have to go searching… I can’t say if it’s spirits or ghosts that we’re talking to, or if it is always earthbound spirits that we are talking to. Is it aliens ☺ I honestly don’t know.  All I know is I ask questions and I get answers.

All the best
