      I've heard that your sleeping mind does better with non-obvious messages. Like messages you can barely hear, or need to decode. I think the only way the signal will enter your dream is if it is interpreted by your sleeping mind, and integrated into the dream. Similar to how you described the Nova Dreamer's lights being integrated into the dreamscape. That is sort of the point.

      The reason the nova dreamer works (for some people) is that it shows you a signal in your dream, that reminds you to question whether you are dreaming. It doesn't just flat out tell you you are dreaming. The important part of that equation, is you noticing the signal on your own, and remembering to do a reality check. That is where your logical mind wakes up. When you interpret the sign, remember what it means, and remember your intention to RC. It needs to come from yourself and your own curiosity.

      But I've never tried. I've just known people who have.

      Been there done that. Even just turning on the radio when there is a talk show going on, will increase your base level of awareness in sleep, which is good. It may even perk you up enough to pull out some lucids for the first nights but nothing consistent.

      I recommend Winamp instead of low level cmd magic. Make some records with nothing than silence then load them up in sequence with your signal in a playlist. Or you can use ClockWise or other similar programs.

      I used to interrupt sleep after about 4 hours then tape an earphone in my ear. I wanted to build a system using bedshaker but the project died from lack of technical expertise. Anyway, I would recommend 3<T<15 minutes between signals, slightly randomized in order to break down subconscious expectation.

      You need to condition yourself to attempt separation immediately after you heard the signal otherwise you will be tricked into doing nothing so many ways that's not even funny.

      So practice with the same signal while you are awake. When you are hit in the midst of your daily activities simply left hanging everything, including your thoughts. You can set the signals further apart if you wish so you can talk to people without being zombified in every 5 minutes.

      If you practice this way for a couple of hours each day for a week you will experience great results or your money back.

      ah cool, good idea I still thing the AT command is easier than making hours of silence, but its the same idea. the randomizing the signals is a great idea too. im gonna use the phrase "i am dreaming" a couple of times, then use a loud three-tone beeping sound which I will practice doing RC's to during the day. Of course, I needa buy those headphones first I hope I'm not wasting my money
