What I found funny in the All Access episode was Grant saying that they never use them as conclusive evidence of anything (or something like that) Yet they sure use them a lot, and they sure report the findings to the owner/client/struggling business owner.

Agreed. The USS Hornet was a good example of using the K2 as "conclusive" evidence, or at least they presented it that way. How many times has Jason said, "We had direct communication with the k2" Ugh.  I found that a lot of the statements made by the GH members were contradictory to the footage/montage sequences of investigations on the all-access show.

Grant just edited his myspace blog on the K2. He added the following:

"Added – 11/15/08: Also, if the K-II is placed near our wireless audio transmitters it will go off. Naturally, we avoid placing it near our packs. Usually, Arms length at pack level is enough. Once you venture above or below it, it doesn't set the K-II off."

Something to look for on future episodes?

I would like to make a few points about the K2 and other EMF detectors that might shead some light on how they are misused:

1. low power sources such as car remotes and cell phones are going to have there fields die off pretty quickly with distance. If the K2 was at 4 feet from the source, and then moved to 8 feet, the signal would be dropped by a factor of 4. 4 feet to 12 feet would drop by a factor of 9.

2. High power sources that are further away, like radio stations, CBs, and Ham radios drop off much slower. If the source was 1 mile away, moving an additional 4 or 12 feet would be negligable.

3. A stong source far away is indestinguishable from a weak source near by using a K2 meter. The only way to eliminate far away sources is to have several K2 meters in the area, aranged in a grid, and if they went off in sync, than the source is far away, but if only one or two went off, the source would be nearby.

4. The K2 does not show frequency, which is the most important thing to know about a RF source if you really wanted to know what it was. There are other devices in the same price range that provide this information. The only reason I can see to avoid this equipment is so that you can continue to pretend that teh signals are of a paranormal nature.

5. The RF spectrum is very noisy. There are signals buzzing through your room and your body all the time. If you had real RF equipment, you would see all kinds of unidentified man made signals.

6. Almost all electronic gear outputs RF energy. Cameras, cell phones, lighting, IR lighting, etc. There is virtually no way they can fild their show without generating a lot of radiation.

If they were really convinced that RF energy could be used to detect ghosts, than why don't they get the right RF equipment and use it instead of a cheap box with a bunch of LEDs. They could use a directional antenna and spectrum analyzer and determine where the signals were coming from and what kind of signals they were. This of course would force them to reclasify many of the Ghost signals as man made.
