Port City Paranormal continues to expand and modify equipment to obtain the best data for our research.
Not every vigil is the same and a wide variety of equipment allows us to use the best tools to cover each site
completely.
Here are examples of our gear, old and new for reference. We suggest you try before you buy, or ask for
suggestions to what will suit your needs. Sometimes the simplest is the best, but your best tool is always You !

A good suggestion is to turn all recorders on as investigators enter the site to
be sure no EVP/ITC are missed. The theory is that spirits may have more
energy to use at the begining of vigil.

| This is a Radio Shack magnetic microphone wth speaker. Originally used to record phone conversations, this device was recommended by Michael Esposito. When placed against solid objects, it can pick up embedded vibrations i.e. EVP. They have been used by other researchers to picking up localized magnetic anomalies in the atmosphere! |
| There are times that we need external microphones, especially when using cassette tape recorders to elimiate motor sounds or to fit in tight spaces. |
