Hi Ron,


Thank you for the warm welcome.

I can see how my background noise sounds similar to radio sweeps. I know of a few people who have received phenomenal results using live radio sweeps or the spirit boxes. I find those methods intriguing and one day I may give them a try, but for now I 've decided to use a background source that minimizes false positives. I've had some success recording in silence, but I prefer the resuts I get using a pre recorded background sound.


Currently, my favorite background is to use some sort of pre recorded babbling. I will often use a foreign language, clean it of any sounds that may be mistaken for English and then speed the recording up so that it sounds like babbling. That is the background I used to captured the "they're broadcasting" recording. The "we're broadcasting" recording contained a combination of gibberish and white noise type sounds.

Samantha
