This year the neurophone concept has now reached maturity. It was developed 21 years ago this year. The entire history of the neurophone reads like a James Bond mystery novel. We are currently writing a full length book
on the neurophone story, and expect to publish this next year. For the present, we will give you a synopsis of the neurophone story, and bring the reader up to date on the current development of the neurophone Mk XI, the eleventh model in a long chain of discovery. following the basic history of
the neurophone, we will give instructions for the set up and use of the neurophone.

The first neurophone was developed when I was 14 years old. A brief
description of the original device is given in the book PYRAMID POWER. The
original neurophone patent #3,393,279, describes a high voltage, high
frequency, amplitude modulated radio oscillator. This device made the
listener into a radio receiver. It transmitted sound information to the user
by means of small insulated electrodes. The 3000 volt signal produced an
electric field of extremely low power density. As the carrier frequency was
in the vicinity of 50 Khz, and the capacitance of the electrodes was therefore
extremely low. The above electrical conditions of low power density indicate
that the original device was safe for use. However, if the electrode surfaces
were scratched, the user would experience a mild, but annoying mild electric
shock.

When I originally received the idea for the first neurophone, I was a
child of 14, and did not have funds to hire a patent attorney. One of my
fathers friends was a patent attorney for Shell Development Corporation, and
agreed to help me write my own application. Over the years, I became very
familiar with patent law, as the patent examiner in Washington said the
neurophone could not possibly work, as it defied ALL present laws of
neurophysiology. The patent fight over the neurophone went on for many years,
finally resulting in complete rejection by the examiner, closing the file
forever with no recourse.

In a brilliant move, my patent attorney (I could afford one by now)
suggested that we go to Washington and demonstrate the neurophone to the
examiner in a final attempt to gain approval. When we arrived at the patent
office, the examiner had a real surprise waiting for us, he had arranged for a
deaf employee of the patent office to be present for the demonstration! The
deaf gentleman was nerve deaf in one ear, and almost totally deaf in the other
ear. When the deaf employee heard high frequency sounds for the first time in
15 years, he wept for joy. The examiner then reopened the neurophone file,
and issued the patent giving the original filing date.

By the time the patent was actually issued, a company in New York
owned by Joseph Lawrence, and Andreja Puharich was infringing on my patent.
It seems that they had applied for a similar patent several months after I had
applied for mine. As I was the first to file, and had pursued the patent, I
won the device. The small New York company bought the patent, and by means of
legal maneuvers, succeeded in causing me to lose a small fortune in the
process. This was due to their issuance of lettered stock which tumbled to a
fraction of its original value by the time the SEC allowed me to sell it.
We have actually gone far ahead of our story, so we will backtrack a
little. during the years in which I battled the patent office for the original
patent many events took place. When I was 17 years old, LIFE magazine called
and wanted to do an article on the device. When I was 14, I had received
national publicity on the front pages of 300 newspapers. After the LIFE
article came out, I was offered up to $8,000,000 for the patent rights. The
press coverage was unbelievable. The Ive Got a Secret show(Gary Moore)
invited me to New York, and millions of people saw the neurophone demonstrated
on Bess Meyerson. It was during this show, when I first met Puharich and
Lawrence.

Puharich invited me to lunch at the Twenty One club, along with G.
Harry Stine, a scientist under the employ of a firm in Connecticut known as
Huyck Corporation. Stine's company was interested in the rights to the
neurophone.

When all the offers were in, my parents and my Houston attorney agreed
that the neurophone should be given to Huyck. After examining the device for
two years, Huyck said the device could not be patented, and dropped it into my
hands once again. By this time, I was under extreme pressure, as I was once
again given the task of pursuing the patent on my own limited funds. At the
same time, Puharich and Lawrence kept urging me to give up, saying that they
had me beat in the patent office.

In 1964, I was offered a position at Tufts University near Boston.
Dr. Dwight Wayne Batteau, a professor at Tufts had an intense interest in the
neurophone as it might play a role in man dolphin communications. Dr. Batteau
had a small company known as Listening Inc., along with a brilliant
electronics man: Steve Moshier. Listening had extensive contracts with the
ONR (Office of Naval Research), and was subcontracting Tufts in some of its
research and development work.

Our first task was to establish the limits and parameters of the
neurophone as it would apply to dolphins. Our secondary task was to determine
the physiological mechanism by which the device worked.
Dolphins have extremely large brains, and communicate on many levels.
We considered that the neurophone would open a channel to the dolphin which
was not previously accessible.

In our initial testing, we found that the neurophone produced a minute
mechanical vibration in the skin under the electrodes. When one person was
listening to the device, other people standing near the electrodes could hear
the sounds coming from the skin. If a stethoscope was placed in contact with
the users skin, the vibration could be heard loudly, and clearly. Our initial
effort was to determine if this vibration was producing bone conduction, or
was the skin vibration merely an artifact?

Doctor Batteau came up with an ingenious experiment to determine if
the skin vibration was actually leading to bone conduction: If the neurophone
were a separate acoustic channel into the brain, we should be able to play two
discordant sounds into the brain of an ordinary person, one by neurophone, and
one by earphones through the ears. If bone conduction were involved, the
sounds would mix or beat in the bone structures of the inner ear, producing a
discord. In the process of bone conduction, sounds are transmitted through
bony skeletal structures to the inner ear, where the small bones normally
vibrated by the ear drum are activated by skeletal vibration. This vibration
is then encoded by the inner ear, and transmitted to the brain by means of the
8th cranial nerve. We are sure that the neurophone did make use of another
channel, due to the fact that people with 8th cranial nerve damage had heard
with the device.

In our experiment, we played one frequency of sound into the
neurophone, and another frequency into the headphones through the ears. If
bone conduction were involved, the sounds would mix as predicted in the inner
ear, and a discord would be perceived by the test subjects (Tufts psychology
students). If the channel to the brain were a separate one, the signals would
be heard simultaneously with no discord. At low volume levels, the students
were able to perceive the separate sounds with no mixing. At higher volume
levels, a mixing could be heard.

We then ran the same experiment by playing the sounds through stereo
headphones, with each signal going into separate ears. The results were
exactly the same as the neurophone experiment. At low volume levels, the
signals were indeed perceived apart from each other. At higher volume levels,
the discord could be perceived.

The higher volume discordant mixing can be explained by neural
intermodulation possibly taking place in the corpus collosum, the small nerve
bundle which connects the left and right hemispheres of the brain together. We
tested a number of Tufts students, and they all had identical results. Wayne
Batteau was so excited, that he suggested we write a letter to Science, for
publication. Our letter is duplicated in the appendix.

As the neurophone was now proven to be a separate brain communication
channel, Doctor Batteau made an offer for rights to the device. He offered to
give me a 1/3 interest in Listening, a 5% royalty, and position of Vice
President in charge of research. The idea was to develop the neurophones
potential in many areas, including its potential as an interface (electronic
corpus collosum) between man and dolphin, and play EEG signals from a human
brain into the dolphin; and to reverse the procedure.

Our work was progressing at a satisfactory rate, when tragedy struck
Listening. Wayne Batteau died of a heart attack in shallow water while
swimming near our dolphin facility on Oahu, Hawaii. When he died, the Navy
canceled our contracts and Listening began to fold. Shortly after that, we
demonstrated the neurophone to the patent examiner, and the rest is history.

While investigating man dolphin communications, we succeeded in
developing a language translator, a device that translated human speech into
dolphin language, and vic versa. This development required a thorough
understanding of the nature of speech, and information theory. We made many
efforts to model the nervous system, and succeeded in demonstrating that the
nervous system uses time ratios as major sources of intelligent information.
We then began to investigate timing ratios in speech patterns of humans and
dolphins. During that period, we found that speech intelligibility was
contained in time dominant ratios in the speech waveform. We found that
speech quality was contained in dominant frequency ratios. So, the nervous
system is designed to recognize two distinct parameters: the time domain, and
the frequency domain.

As a result of the knowledge gained in this area, I designed a circuit
which suppressed the frequency domain, while amplifying the time domain. This
device, was so radical in approach, that I applied for a patent on it as a
specialized speech processor. Six months after the patent was applied for,
the National Security Agency placed the patent application under a top secrecy
order #756,124. The order said that my invention was being suppressed in the
interest of National Security. It further stated that I could be tried for
treason and shot by firing squad if I revealed its working nature to anyone
other than an authorized government representative. In other words they stole
it! Needless to say I was very disappointed in the system. It took four
year, and three law firms to sue for release of my invention. We won the
battle, and the secrecy order was rescinded. Patent #3,647,970 was issued on
the 7th of March 1972.

In 1974, two years after I wrote Pyramid Power, we spent the night in
the Great Pyramid. A full description of that event will have to wait for the
publication of our full length book on the neurophone.(see also "Gods of
Aquarius" by Brad Stieger a starseed book) I can say that I had an experience
of enlightenment, including a full blown Kundalini Release. After that
experience, I became a trance medium. During one of my trances, the message
came through that the speech processing patent which was under secrecy so long
was in actuality the perfect neurophone circuit. Well, this was a surprise,
as I had never tried the circuit in that way. I must admit, I really did not
believe it could work as a neurophone. The message to try the speech
processor as a neurophone kept coming and coming until I finally decided to
try it out. When I tried it, I was in the suprise of my life! It worked! The
result was the development of the present neurophone Mk XI, the finest
neurophone to date, and it does not require the use of a radio frequency
carrier wave.

The clue as to how the neurophone actually works, is contained in the
skin vibration artifact which we discovered at Tufts University. The original
neurophone used a high voltage amplitude modulated carrier wave to create a
molecular vibration in the skin itself. The skin became the diaphragm of a
biological electrostatic vibrator. The skin is piezo electric and opto
electric. That is, when the skin is stimulated by an electric field, or by a
photon field, it will contract and vibrate with modulation of the field. If
it is mechanically stimulated, it will generate its own electric field. In
Russia, blind people have been trained to see with their fingertips; and in
Czechoslavakia, deaf people have been trained to hear with their fingertips.
The skin is the largest most complex organ of the living system. As
we develop in the womb, all organs of sense evolve from the skin. The skin
involutes and convolutes to form eyes, ears, etc. Our research indicates that
the skin itself has the latent potential of performing all functions of
perception.

The neurophone stimulates and develops this latent ability. The skin
is the organ which receives the signal from the neurophone, and converts the
incoming signal into a modulated molecular vibration which is then interpreted
as sound. We could theoretically stimulate the sense of sight in a similar
way. As all acupuncture meridians are present on the surface of the skin, we
have found that the neurophone stimulation balances all the acupuncture
meridians by activating the skin!

The neurophone Mk XI converts incoming non-linear acoustic information
into a time domain amplified signal. This signal is then transmitted to a
pair of high dielectric constant ceramic electrodes which are placed in
contact with the skin of the head. The electric field (approx 20 Volts RMS)
interacts with the skin ceramic electrode combination to create a molecular
vibration in the skin. This is then interpreted by the brain. The result is
a new modality for coupling information to the brain, using the skin itself as
the receptor. Bone conduction vibrators will not work as a neurophone, as the
vibratory signal is to gross, the skin itself must vibrate in a synchronous
mode in accordance with the time encoded information.

Doctor Christopher Hills, in his book Nuclear Evolution states that
the skin is a second brain, and is the basic organ of spiritual and psychic
evolution. He states that the skin can be trained to develop powers of
perception such as telepathy, etc...

The neural information processing system of the human body is
apparently extremely sensitive to time domain information. Doctor Batteau
postulated that the nervous system incorporates delay line correlation
technology to detect time varied information ratios. The neurophone Mk XI
processing circuit processes the incoming complex non linear signal waveform,
and amplifies the non linearities thus increasing the timing recognition
pattern of the signal. In the process, the frequency domain is suppressed.
The time rate of change of the incoming signal is thus amplified. This signal
is so time dominant, that it can be hard clipped or run through a zero
crossing detector without losing any intelligibility.

This time processed signal is then fed to the pair of high dielectric
ceramic electrodes. The 20 volt average RMS signal does not require a radio
carrier to work. As stated earlier, the original neurophone design had to
actually work by brute force, due to the fact that the modulation signal was
not processed to increase the time domain signal properties. As previously
stated, the original neurophone produced typical voltages on the order of 3000
at a carrier frequency of 50000 hertz. As the skin is piezoelectric, and has
a dielectric constant in the range of 12000, the neurophone electrodes are
made of a ceramic material designed to provide a maximum impedance match to
the skin itself. The entire skin electrode system is a piezoelectric
resonator. Note: The ceramic electrodes are fragile and could break if
dropped on a hard surface. Be very careful, they are expensive to replace.
To obtain the best results from your neurophone experience, you
should spend at least 1/2 hour per day listening to a broad spectrum frequency
source in a quiet, relaxing environment. It is best to listen with an
increased blood flow to the brain. The preferred position is an inclined
plane of 11 degrees with the head down. Testing has shown that most people go
into deep alpha within 30 seconds when placed in this position. This state is
the most receptive state to listen to the neurophone. The neurophone listener
can build his own incline plane from a board six feet long, and at least 18
inches wide. The raised end of the board should be supported at a level of 14
inches above the floor.

The electrodes should be placed on the temples, directly behind and
slightly above the eyes. Do not place on the hair. Although the electrodes
will work perfectly well without electrode jelly, we suggest the use of EEG
type electrode jelly, or KY jelly, as this improves impedance matching to the
skin. If you use KY jelly as an electrode cream, smear an even coating over
the black ceramic of each electrode, and place the electrodes in contact with
the skin. The electrodes may be held in place by means of an EEG type rubber
strap, or an ordinary 2 inch ACE bandage may be used.
After the electrode strap is in position on the head, insert the KY
coated ceramic electrodes under the strap so the electrodes are held securely
in contact with the temples. Later, you may desire to move the electrodes
around to experience different sensations. Many neurophone listeners prefer
to place one electrode in the center of the forehead, on the 3rd eye area, and
to place the other one on the back of the neck, or on the hand or wrist.
The sound source for neurophone listening can be a cassette player, a
radio, or a stereo HI Fi system. The neurophone should be driven from a
headphone or a speaker output jack. Your neurophone is provided with an audio
connector cable with a mini plug on the cassette end, and a 1/4 inch phone
plug on the other end. This will fit most cassette players. If you want to
drive the neurophone from another source you may have to obtain a different
wire. Your local Radio Shack store will probably have the right one.

In using the neurophone, I generally adjust the sound level of the
cassette machine to a comfortable listening level as heard through the built
in loudspeaker of the machine. I then plug the mini plug into the earphone
jack of the player, and plug the standard phone plug into the input jack on
the neurophone. Plug the electrode phone plug into the neurophone output
jack. Rotate the neurophone volume control slowly clockwise. The switch on
the control will turn the unit on. The small LED panel lamp should glow at
this time. Slowly turn the control up until you begin to hear the tape from
your cassette player through the neurophone electrodes. Depending on the
program material to which you are listening, the sound which you first hear
through the neurophone will not sound like Hi Fi. This is due to two things:
The sound you hear is time domain dominant. 2. As this is a new listening
channel, the brain actually has missing processing capability. If we run a
frequency sweep of the neurophone while listening, we will find that all of us
have certain spectra which are entirely missing from our perceptual ability.
That is, in the beginning we may hear a complex sound wave of one millisecond
duration (1KHz), but miss entirely a sound of another domain. As we listen
through the neurophone, the missing ranges are programmed into the brain.
After listening for as little as 30 minutes, the sound begins to take on new
qualities. The sound appears to move around in the head, and take on new
dimension as we program our psychic brain centers to receive the new signal
input. The more the neurophone is used, the clearer it gets. I recommend
electronic music tapes in the beginning, such as the astral sound tape.
As the neurophone channel is but one channel into the brain, we have
found that supplementing the neurophone channel with the frequency domain
input by means of quality headphones is desirable. The reintroduction of the
frequency domain through the headphones adds a new dimension of sound to the
brain mind input system. The combination of neurophone plus headphone signals
provides the best listening combination. For this purpose, the neurophone
contains a headphone output jack which will accept monaural or stereo
headphones. The second volume control from the left is used to control sound
to the headphones. As the headphones are driven by the cassette recorder, the
neurophone must be plugged into a speaker or headphone output jack. The
neurophone plus headphone adjustment should be made as follows: 1. First
adjust the sound level to the electrodes with the headphone control in the off
position. 2. With the headphones in place, slowly adjust the level of the
headphones to supplement the electrode signal. Sit back, or lay back close
your eyes and let the signals carry you away.

In the near future: Source of Innergy will begin to produce cassette
tapes designed to be used only with the neurophone. The tapes will cover many
different categories from: Psychic Center Stimulation; to Subliminal Habit
Modification Programs. We will notify neurophone owners as these tapes become
available for purchase.

In the beginning, it is not necessary to use special tapes, as the
object is to develop the latent channel through which the neurophone works.
This may be done by listening to white noise (waterfalls) or your favorite
music tapes. Neurophone stimulated perceptual enhancement occurs with
increasing frequency as you use your neurophone. This experience is similar
to the meditation experience of transcending. These periods of extremely
clarity become more and more pronounced as you put hours on your neurophone.
All changes in awareness are not gradual. All progress is in the form of
discrete steps. What may appear to be a gradual altering of consciousness is
actually a series of graduations. We may plod along thinking we are making no
forward progress, and at the point in time where we feel we want to give up we
experience quantum leap in awareness. One of the most common awareness
changes with the neurophone effect is an increase in telepathic awareness.
Although this cannot be turned on at will, instances of its occurrence will
increase in frequency as time goes on. Please keep a diary of neurophone
hours of listening, and make note of any change in awareness, dreaming, or
unusual perception changes.

We would like all neurophone owners to send us a monthly research
report or diary of experiences. This is important data which will enable us
to share with you all experiences, and tune the neurophone experience. Keep
note of your actual listening time, and listening material. If you experience
any change in consciousness or awareness record this down. Others would like
to share your experience.

Retired Lt. Col. Thomas Bearden is a nuclear physicist from George
Washington University. He is one of the foremost experts in warfare strategy,
and is an expert in the field of Soviet Psychotronics Research. Tom Bearden
and I have made two mind links by means of the neurophone. Details of the
brain mind link will be given in a later edition of the Innergy News, or the
neurophone research journal. Col Bearden has developed a mathematical formula
that indicates that the combined mind power of a group of people will multiply
exponentially if these people are linked in a unitary consciousness. A small
group of people could actually alter the entire course of mankind in an
instant of time, if they were perfectly linked in a unified field of
consciousness. Col Bearden believes that the neurophone is the key to linking
consciousness. He believes it may hold the answer to solving all the problems
of mankind.

This linking could be done in a number of ways. The Soviets have
established that an EEG machine of only 16 channels could pick up the entire
consciousness of an individual. All that is then necessary, is to feed the
data into the mind of another by means of a multi channel neurophone. The
neurophone would then become an electronic corpus collosum between the minds
of two or more people.

At a given time in the near future, we will notify all neurophone
owners to all try to listen to the neurophone at an exact time period
everyday. This will be a simple attempt to unify the consciousness of the
group. This type of experiment has been somewhat successful in the past, when
used with group meditation. It may be that this experiment will speed up the
increased awareness brought about by the use of the neurophone.

THE NEUROPHONE MODEL 50 - The Thinkman
Principles of Operation

The thinkman is the latest development in the series of neurophone
devices first invented by Patrick Flanagan in 1959 when he was a prolific
young inventor of 14. Since that time, considerable progress has been made in
the development of improved neurophone devices, and the thinkman is the
fiftieth neurophone system developed by Dr. Flanagan. A full and complete
theory of the neurological, physiological and psychological operation of the
neurophone is still being pieced together.

How does it work? How is it possible to hear without using ones ears?
The current hypothesis is based upon the fact that the skin is embrionically
the source of all our human sense organs. In fact, the skin itself contains
more sensors, for heat, touch, pain, etc., than any other part of the human
anatomy. The human ear evolves embryonically out of the convolutions of the
skin of an embryo in the mothers womb. Basically, the skin is the oldest
evolutionary nervous system sensor. Since it is the precursor of the ears,
the skin should also be capable of hearing and, as the neurophone proves, the
skin does indeed have this capability.

Neurologically, the human skin is both piezoelectric and optoelectric.
This means that it produces minute electrical currents when vibrated or
rubbed. Soviet and Czechoslovakian neurological research has also shown that
the skin produces an electric current when stimulated by light.
As long ago as 1785, Charles Augustin DeCoulomb, a french physicist
and an early experimenter with electricity, proved that an electrostatic field
produces a measurable physical force. The neurophone processes audio
information to produce a very weak 20 volt RMS electric field at each of its
two transducer disks. This alternating electric field is changed as a
function of the time rate of change of the audio signal coming into the
neurophone. This minute electrical field actually causes microscopic
vibrations of the skin under the transducer disks. Maximum coupling of the
electric field to the skin is ensured by fabricating the transducer disks from
Zirconium Titanate which possess the same dielectric constant as human skin.
If you were to put an ordinary medical stethoscope on the skin next to one of
the transducer disks while the neurophone is being used, you would be able to
detect the vibrations of the skin created by the tiny electric field of the
transducer disk.

Work done by Dr's Patrick Flanagan and Dwight Wayne Batteau at Tufts
University during the years of 1964-1968 is the basis of the current theory
regarding how the neurophone works. They discovered that the frequency
content of the human voice had little to do with the brain's ability to
recognize intelligence in human speech. For example, people who have had
their larynx removed can use an artificial larynx, a buzz generator or low
frequency vibrator held against the side of the throat. Words are formed
totally by the action of the jaw, the tongue, the teeth, the glottis, and the
nasal cavities. These cavities form a highly variable time delay encoding
chamber. They found that the basic audio information which our brains evolved
to decipher, the human voice, is dependent not upon frequency but upon the
time rate of change nature of a sound caused by time delays imposed by the
mouth and nasal passages. The neurophone makes use of these time delay codes
by processing the incoming audio signal to remove the frequency component and
leave only the time domain, the time rate of change information. This is one
reason why the neurophone sounds so scratchy when one first begins to listen
to it. Thus, the electronic circuitry presents audio information to the skin
in the manner that the skin was originally designed to receive and decode such
information eons ago.

But is it certain that the neurophone is not operating by bone
conduction as are some other devices available today for listening experiments
and enjoyment? A definitive experiment proving that bone conduction is not a
cause of neurophonic hearing can be duplicated by anyone with the required
simple equipment. This procedure is called the Batteau test, honoring the
late hearing researcher, Dr Dwight Wayne Batteau, who developed the test
during neurophone evaluation at Tufts University. Two separate channels of
audio information are required. One channel goes through a set of ordinary
headphones, the other goes through the neurophone. One specific frequency is
played through the headphone channel. Another slightly different is played
through the neurophone circuitry to the transducer disks. If the neurophone
were producing hearing by bone conduction, the two slightly different
frequencies would mix in the bone structure of the inner ear producing a
discernible beat frequency. With the nerophone, this beat frequency is heard
only at very high volume levels in both channels, levels at which the
neurophone probably producing bone conduction by the strong vibration of the
skin under each transducer disk. However the beat frequency should
theoretically be heard at all volume levels and yet it is not heard at normal
neurophonic listening levels. The neurophonic experience is therefore
probably a new way to hear, using a new channel into the brain: the skin.
The neurophone is an electronic audio information processor designed
and sold for experimental and entertainment purposes. The electronic
circuitry of the neurophone accepts an input from any audio or Hi Fi system.
It converts the audio signal into a digital like low voltage electrical signal
that activates two small transducer disks. These two disks or electrodes may
be placed anywhere on the bare skin of the listener. When the transducers are
in contact with the skin, the audio signal will then be perceived in the
persons head. There are no hazardous voltages or currents between the two
sensor disks. There are no radio frequency carriers involved in the action of
the neurophone. The neurophone thinkman operates from a 9 volt transistor
radio type battery which is enclosed in its case.

The audio signal source for the neurophone may be a portable cassette
tape player, a radio, or a stereo Hi Fi system. Most modern cassette tape
machines and Hi Fi stereo systems have a headphone or external speaker output
jack. The neurophone output goes through two 1 inch diameter transducer disks
fabricated of Zirconium Titinate which are imbedded in acrylic plastic tiles
to protect the brittle disks against breakage. The transducer disks are,
nevertheless, still fragile and should be treated carefully because hard
physical shocks will break them. If a transducer disk is broken by rough
handling, a new set of transducer disks may be obtained from us. Insert the
plug at the end of the transducer lead into the jack labeled electrode on the
end of the thinkman.

Connect your neurophone to an audio source such as a cassette machine
by means of an audio connecting cable. The small plug on your connecting
cable will usually fit into the headphone output or external speaker jack on
your machine, the other plug on your connecting cable will plug into the audio
jack on the neurophone. Before plugging the cable into your cassette jack,
adjust the output volume control on your machine to a 50% or higher level to
ensure that the signal processor on your neurophone is receiving an adequate
signal level. Turn on the neurophone by rotating the volume control in a
clockwise direction. The red LED indicator light will glow, indicating the
neurophone is on. Place the two transducer disks on the bare skin on either
side of the forehead; They may be held in place by the elastic headband
supplied with the unit. Turn the volume control clockwise to about mid way.
Turn on your audio source so that the signal will now play through the
neurophone. Place the electrode disks on the skin of your temples, plug up
your ears, and the audio signal should be heard, appearing to exist in the
middle of your head. If necessary, adjust the neurophone volume control until
the signal is heard.

As you become more experienced in neurophone listening, you will find
that you will be able to place the two transducer disks on the bare skin in
spots other than the forehead. One neurophone listener reports excellent
neurophone listening with one transducer disk on the soft flesh of one leg and
the other transducer on the soft skin of the stomach. However, the neurophone
must be operated at a higher volume setting to obtain the same level of
neurophone hearing under such remote transducer locations. The ability of the
transducer disks to function at a location of the skin remote from the head is
partially explained by the current operating hypothesis.

If your neurophone begins to sound weak and the red LED indicator on
the front panel begins to glow very dimly, replace the battery in the unit.
Unfasten the four phillips head screws holding the bottom on the case and
remove the bottom plate. Inside, you will find a battery clip and a 9 volt
transistor battery. Replace the battery with a fresh one. For best results,
use an alkaline battery which will provide more than 10 hours of neurophone
use under normal conditions.

The neurophone processes audio information in such a way that the
frequency domain is eliminated but the time domain is preserved. Studies with
earlier versions of the neurophone by Tufts University for the US Navy as long
ago as 1966 indicated that the brain initially may have difficulty in
recognizing the neurophone signals due to gaps in perception. The user may
not be able to perceive certain frequencies and time domains in portions of
the audio spectrum. As you use your neurophone, these holes in your
neurophone hearing process will disappear, as your brain learns to recognize
these energies, and you will begin to hear neurophonic sound with full
frequency and wide dynamic range.

The neurophone is an experimental listening device that may by
continuous use stimulate and enhance dormant perceptive abilities in the user.
For example, since the device is apparently stimulating pathways to the brain
that are not used normally, it may increase intelligence, telepathic ability,
and neural efficiency. Dr. Flanagan has used the neurophone longer than
anyone in existence, and has developed extremely high neural efficiency
scores. He believes this increase in brain efficiency is directly related to
the use of the neurophone device. Many long term neurophone users report
increased awareness, telepathic ability, out of body experiences, better
memory, and increased auditory frequency range. A commercial pilot from Saudi
Arabia reported a recovery of hearing damage due to aural trauma resulting
from the loud aircraft engine noise as a result of his job. Please note
however, that the neurophone is an experimental device, and has many uses that
have been untapped. The neurophone owner will have to experiment and discover
his own uses for the device. Dr Flanagan used his own neurophone to learn the
Arabic language; actress Susan Strasberg found that she could learn her stage
lines easier by playing them through the device. A recent book by G. Harry
Stine, titled THE SILICON GODS by Dell, discusses the possibility of using the
neurophone as a part of a mind computer link in which the power of the human
mind could be amplified by millions of times. Stine says that the entire
process if feasible right now, with the help of the neurophone and state of
the art brain scan technology. Tom Bearden, in his book EXCALIBER BRIEFING says that the neurophone may eventually be used to successfully enable one ore more people to do a perfect mind link in which the power of multiple minds may solve all world problems.

We hope that neurophone owners will join us in the task of discovering
and using the potential of the device. The field of neurophone research is
wide open, in the future we will see the development of neurophone software
and hardware as well as neurophone user's league, our own neurophone magazine,
and a host of other neurophone support devices. We invite all neurophone
owners to share their experiences with us, so that we may share them with
others.
