Spirit box
A radio-sweep device some teams use hoping fragmented audio resembles answers during a session.
Spirit boxes (sometimes called ghost boxes) rapidly scan radio bands so snippets of broadcast audio play in sequence.
Listeners may hear pareidolia — the mind assembling words from noise. Record the full session and note questions asked if you share clips.
