EMF-ITC by Digital Dowsing review by Jim Gentry IGSS' tech specialist.

I am going to try and religiously post candid reviews about new paranormal equipment as we acquire them. These will be non-biased, matter-of-fact reviews and are my opinion of the device. Your opinions may vary from mine.

We went to a very active location last night and ran the EMF-ITC from Bill Chappell's company Digital Dowsing through its paces.

Let me give you an overview of the different modes it offers.

1. EMF mode. This mode simply displays EMF levels. There are sub modes within this mode you can activate that displays in addition to the EMF meter such as air ion count, EMF 3-channel axis view, EMF high/low levels, EMF graphical scope, and EMF HZ (frequency)

You can also set EMF "alarms" for EMF minimum and maximum when EMF drops above or below a certain threshold, EMF "above" when it goes above a certain level, EMF "below" when EMF drops below a certain level, EMF ZERO, for areas with constantly higher EMF readings it allows you to set the EMF sensor to zero, LED SCALE, which allows you to adjust the sensitivity on the LED lights.

2. Ovilus mode. Shows up to 6 words on the screen based on multiple environmental inputs read from the various sensors.

3. YES/NO mode. Based on changes in the local environment, it will display YES or NO. If no change, a "-" is displayed.

4. EMF DRAW mode. "Draws" changes of EMF in the LCD screen.

5. Dowsing Rod mode. Based on the 4 internal EMF sensors, shows a graphics representation of dowsing rods indicating where energy is in regards to your location. The rods will show an "X" when on top of the energy source.

There is also a SYSTEM MENU, which allows you to calibrate the meter (factory can only gain access to this menu option I'm told), and set sensitivity levels for the ion counter, frequency detection circuit, and sensitivity for the EMF DRAW function.

I found the meter to be responsive to changes in EMF and liked the LED EMF level representation so you can monitor the level or change from a distance or via a DVR camera. Some of the modes I found to be a little "out there" such as the EMF draw function which gives you a graphical representation of EMF fluctuations. I guess this could be used to look for symbols or drawings made by EMF changes or to look for patterns, but I think this mode would rarely produce anything considered meaningful and even if it did, it could just be coincidence. The YES/NO mode didn't go off for us at all during a 20 minute session of question asking, even though we had undeniable activity going on around us. The Ovilus mode did display a word or two that appeared to be coherent answers to our questions, but I'm a huge skeptic of the Ovilus and don't put any faith in the results it produces. The dowsing rod mode was pretty interesting and did appear to work well in directing us towards higher EMF areas.

In conclusion, its a nice fancy EMF meter with some interesting additional functions tacked onto it. If you like to play around with new interesting features that are new and offbeat and you are a big fan of the Ovilus, then this device is a must for you. We will continue to use this meter and some of its additional modes at future investigations and it'll be interesting to see what future results with it may yield.
