I want to go again soon and when I do I usually leave the recorder there recording and I go walking around the cemetery, when I do I will see if I can download it it being a old recorder and all..
If you're going to use an analog tape recorder, just make sure you change the tapes regularly. Old tapes MAY not completely erase and what may sound like an EVP could be an old recording that wasn't completely erased. Kind of like a double exposure on a film camera.
Interestingly, the technical term for hearing an old recording under a new recording is called "Ghosting".
