Secure your recorder to a hat or stick it securely in the hat band to reduce movement sounds. Also take extra batteries. They can be drained in an active area. Talk in a normal voice. Avoid whispering as it is hard to discern later when you analyze.

Allow time between questions for a reply. Let your recorder run though the whole time you are at your location even when you are not actively doing an EVP session. We got several EVP's when we were changing locations and just talking in general. All of the EVP's I picked up were "intelligent" in that they were in response to what was going on at the time.

Good luck!
