Frank's Box

[Tessie]

There was something really interesting on Paranormal State the other week, a gadget called Frank's Box. Heres a bit of info i found on it.

Imagine being able to pick up a phone — or a device like it — and dial up The Other Side. Answering on the other end is someone who is no longer of this world — they're dead. Sound far-fetched? Not in the eyes of researchers all over the world who are pursuing tech links with other realms for real-time, two communication — including the inventor of a fairly new device: Frank's Box.

In the years since Edison, a host of two-way, real-time devices have been invented. Some seem to produce amazing results — but as yet no scientific, conclusive proof of communication with the dead. One of the newest in the field is Frank's Box, created by Frank Sumption of Colorado.

Frank's Box scans AM/FM and low band frequencies to create a noise matrix from which the dead — as well as other entities — can use to modulate for messages. It's made of computer, radio and electronic components. Like real-time EVP (electronic voice phenomena), Frank's Box produces messages from a word or two to complete sentences in length.

Sumption says he received instructions for building the device from disembodied entities. His first box was built in 2002, and he has made fewer than three dozen. While anyone can build one from his schematics, there seems to be something especially effective about the boxes hand-made by Sumption himself.

The box seems to create an entire energy field that attracts spirits. You can ask questions, and get answers — but not consistently. No matter who you ask for on the Other Side, it's often a guess as to who — or what — really answers. Some researchers, like Sumption himself, don't ask questions, but turn on the box and record whatever comes through, much like EVP.

What does everyone think? I would love to know more about it.

WELL MY DEAR FRIEND IREAD YOUR DISCUSSION PIECE WELL GOOD MY FRIEND

I have done extensive research on the Franks box and though there are some technical issues with the device. There are some issue associated with the Franks Box that hold some "substance" While the Franks box is a simple AM/FM radio/transmitter and reciever that picks up random radio frequencies. The jumbled voices and sounds that come threw the box are just that, simple and random sounds that may form sentences or answers to direct questions. (in theory) spirits are said to be on several seperate planes then the living. So giving them several frequencies to work on is required in order for them to communicate with us, whether it's threw radio, microwave, cellular, electric, magnetic ETC wavs/frequencies.

The Franks box only works with radio frequencies. Though the random sounds that seem to directly communicate to us threw the box are seemingly direct. The odds of a random but direct answer to a question is very possible due to so many frequencies being used at one time. Not to dismiss the claims that Franks Box is a great device to use it does require more work and in my own opinion that the feilds and frequencies "best" associated with paranormal activity should be narrowed down and those devices like K2, EMF, Trifeild, Cell/Millgaus, Franks Box ETC. be modified to better suit paranormal investigators in working with a particular type of feild or energy.

If your interested in the schematics for Franks box you can find them online.

It's a simple device really. I woudn't put much faith into a device that runs on so many radio frequencies, but in the feild of paranormal research/science the only way to debunk claims of activity is to build devices that we can use to do this with. If I had to rate this device on a level from 1-10 with 10 being the best I'd say Franks box was a "2"

Hope this helps.

Thankyou for the information Faith, i found it very interesting, and yes it did help, at the moment i am getting good responses with my K2 meter and my little digital voice recorder.
Thanks again.

Remember, the KII meters will pick up walkie talkie devices, etc. from a pretty good distance. So you should try keying your phones, walkie's, etc. to see how your KII responds. Ours can even pick up police signals from their scanners if close enough.

i have a radio shack radio i modded and does the same thing they talk to me all the time they say my name they answer questions and every thing. I can prove that spirits exist and there is a heaven and hell. I am a empath/clairvoyant.

Well, as you all know, there have been a few cases of those on the other side actually using telephones for contact, as well as EVP. So it's not an impossibility that a proper communication system could be developed one day. Maybe Frank's Box is the prototype of something far more sophisticated and controllable to come .......

yeah they leave messgaes on my phone have used my phone and things like that. I have a ghost box and they talk all the time to me on it they all seem to know my name I really do not know why but they do. i like it I can tell them say my name they will i ask there name they tell me they talk about dying heaven hell all kinds of things.

[Diane McLaughlin]

Yes, Cristina, I agree the other side uses telephones. My daughter received a message from her great grandmother on her answering machine on the day she was buried. It was an unnerving experience because of the fact that her great grandmother always told my daughter that she would come back (if there was life after death) to let her know.

The group I was in made a Franks Box from a video off of You Tube....I personally do not believe they do anything but go from channel to channel. Every now and then someone hears some word and tries to make sense of it, but again I personally find it distracting.

[allen]

I bet i can prove that they can communicate with them through the radio. They all know my name they say it all the time they tell me there name when i ask all kinds of things.

Dear Tessie,
Energy is something we have learned to control on a limited basis, and by
Changing energy levels and detecting those changes, we communicate. It can be light energy(photons),magnetic energy(radio like),Sound (air pressure), It appears to me that a ghost can hear our spoken questions by air pressure changes (the way we hear) or magnetic waves (radio like) from our brain as we send the commands to our voice box to speak. EVP appears to pick up magnetic waves(radio like) in its circuitry to put on the tape or digital storage device, that's why we don't hear it till after we play it back. Franks box may be a magnetic sensor that is able to sense those fluctuating changes to a amplifier then to a speaker for us to hear. I think if someone was to wind a lot of wire around a metal bar and apply a small electric current though it(like a AA battery and resistor and a capistor, then connect to a speaker or tape recorder input. It may be a way to pick up there communication to us in a way we can hear it. We have many distractions around us that I believe prevent us to just hear them in our ears or brain receptors.
Good Luck Bob
