The Spiritual Scientist (1998 Vol. 2 No. 2)
TDC – details of the experiment
For those of you that are not aware, the Scole experimental group have been conducting regular (twice weekly) experiments using electronic equipment, to try to open communication ‘links’ with other dimensions of existence. This has been named “Trans-Dimensional Communication” or T.D.C. for short. The results of nearly 300 hours of research are truly amazing.
...
One of the early instructional sessions was in November 1996 and we were pleased to have as our guests, three prominent gentlemen,
Montague Keen,
Arthur Ellison (Emeritus Professor of Electrical Engineering) and
David Fontana (Professor of Psychology). These gentlemen are members of Society of Psychical Research, (Prof. Fontana being the current president). They came as individual researchers. It was also very fortunate that we had one of the most eminent electrical engineers present, in the light of what transpired.
It was during that session than an anonymous scientist (a spirit personality, communicating through altered state) described in detail, a device that was to be constructed. This device would incorporate
a piece of Germanium which was to be put under a small amount of pressure. Germanium is rare metallic element, the Oxford English Dictionary describes it as ‘of greyish-white color found in some minerals and flue dusts from burning certain coals’. The technical requirements and details regarding construction were discussed with Prof. Ellison, who seemed very pleased to be involved in setting up these experiments and excited at the possibilities.
The spirit scientist also explained that some form of amplification would be necessary, but expressed concern regarding our high mains voltage (250V). This was easily overcome with the help of Prof. Ellison offering to supply
a battery powered amplifier, with a high impedance input. The amplifier necessary to increase the audibility of the communications and was to be connected directly to the germanium device (the receptor).

Reception not by electronics.
One very important point was made clear to us, that the technology involved in these communications has no parallel in our world and therefore what we are describing here has no basis or ‘model’ in modern physics. This point was made clear during the conversation between Prof. Ellison and the spirit scientist, when scientist made reference to a ‘cohera’. Professor Ellison told us that a ‘cohera’ was something used in conjunction with a radio or electromagnetic waves. As these ‘waves’ pass through the ‘cohera’, he explained, the bits stick together and conduct. The spirit scientist immediately added that electromagnetic waves (which include radio waves) are not involved in the reception of these communications. He told us all, not to fall into that trap as they are purely spiritual vibrations or waves that will be using germanium as a point of entry or focus.
This point, I think is worth emphasizing, as it is so easy to think these communications as forms of radio transmissions, which they are definitely not. Radio signals are receiving using a radio receiver, which is tuned to a particular frequency, or wave length. The only electronic equipment use in this type of experiment, is the amplifier, this being coupled directly to the germanium receptor. As Professor Ellison explained to us, the germanium receptor as it is, could in no way operate as a receiver of radio signals. Of course I’m not saying that spirit voices or communications cannot be received on a radio receivers, they can, but this is by different means, but more of that later.
The scientist went on to explain some of the fascinating aspects of the proposed ‘links’ with these distant dimensions. He said that some of the communicators could only speak through the germanium receptor, as this provided them with a clearer channel than other known methods. It also helped them to be understood, as some form of translation took place through this process, an essential requirement as some of these personalities are not familiar with language.
KODACHROME film
It was at one of the regular sessions we had with the three S.P.R. researchers, at which, they were asked to bring along a sealed Kodachrome film. This film was locked into wooden box (with a substantial lock, the key being held by only one of the researchers) and placed on the table, were it remained until after the experiment. The spirit communicator (channeled) said that something relating to the T.D.C. experiments would be imprinted onto film, something, he said, that would help to improve the communications, see (fig. 2)

As predicted, and as you can see in the photograph, we had indeed received valuable information on that sealed film. It shows the germanium receptor and its connections to the amplifier, but in addition there are two coils joined into the circuit. This film was approximately 20 inches long and contained text initiated by the communicator. This text explained how these two coils should be connected and their positions in relation to the germanium. Again we enlisted the help of Prof. Ellison, who helped us find the necessary components.
At the next session, it was explained to us that an interaction or ‘effect’ took place between germanium crystal and the coils.
The relative proximity of the coils and their polarity was an important factor in the mechanism required to receive these communications. A coil or a solenoid (a coil wound on an iron core) produces an electromagnetic field round itself and this field has a direction of flow and ‘polarity’, north and south, at each end (see fig. 3).

Just to confuse things, remember that in this instance we are not actually referring to electromagnetic fields, but ‘energy’ fields or patterns. This of course gives rise to many frown and can cause a lot of misunderstanding. We know so little what lies behind this material world, this rapidly expanding world of technology, and what is being suggested here is something beyond our known earthly sciences. This requires willingness to be open to many ‘alternative’ concepts. So frequently used terms such as ‘energy’ and ‘energy fields’ are being used here to describe one of these ‘alternative’ concepts, only until such time as mankind has a fuller and deeper understanding of these matters.
These ‘energy’ fields, associated with our coils, behave, we are told, in much the same way as their electromagnetic counterparts, with regard to direction of flow and polarity. As you can see from the illustration, a void is formed were the two fields oppose each other i.e. like poles repel (remember your physics at school). This ‘void’ has been described to us as ‘
non spin energy space’ and is not unknown in other extra dimensional concepts. It is in this void that the germanium is situated,
right in the heart of the opposing fields (see fig. 4), where it can detect and absorb the fluctuation of energies. These fluctuations cause this ‘effect’ on the germanium crystal to take place, opening the links with these far off dimensions. I imagine this void as a doorway or opening leading to other areas of existence and the germanium as the key that opens this door.
First communication (Disincarnate personality communicates through germanium 21/1/97)
“Hello my friends. Can you hear me? I shall continue this transmission in the hope that you hear me clearly.
You understand my friends, that we are experiencing some difficulties, but we feel sure that these will be overcome. However, we feel we have made considerable progress upon the last attempt to communicate with you.
We have, for some time, been involved in an experimental communication system, and it is this system that we are using now. It is hoped, that in the future, this system will enable us to communicate with those distant dimensions and if all goes according to plan, you will be part of these experiments.
I shall repeat myself and say I do hope that you can hear this communication. We will stay here for a little longer, please be alert.”
The communication then paused for a short time, then continued, becoming clearer.
“Some time in the near future, there will be many attempts made to communicate with you in this way. There are many people here, who feel as I do, that this work is of the utmost importance to mankind, and therefore are willing to put their hearts into these experiments. Thank you my dear friends, thank you for co-operating with us and giving us this moment of your time.
May peace be with all of you.
God Bless you.”
The communication the ended after lasting approximately 20 minutes.
Semiconductors.
Over the past months, we have had long conversations with communicators on this subject of inter-dimensional links. One very interesting conversation concerned man’s use of semiconductors (germanium is also a semiconductor) and included an insight into the use of other materials (such as carbide) in the future. The possibilities are almost unlimited, given the right circumstances, we are told. They explained to us, as best they could, why the use of semiconductors will play important part in future experiments and how some of these ‘links’ will be made.
At their suggestion, we carried out several experiments without the germanium receptor attached to the amplifier. This apparently still allowed some communications to take place, but only those dimension or levels, that were nearer to our own, would be able to form necessary links. We have now conducted many of these experiments without the germanium, some of them have been two way conversations, and some witnessed by members of the S.P.R. and recorded on tape.
