Continuing from last 'how to hide' post

Speach.
If you talk via radio/ phone or normally while in a 'hostile
enviroment' they'll have your voice patterns.
thats bad
They could (theretically) put a filter on all phone traffic
listening for your pattern.
(not as hard as it sounds, as you render the pattern to a simple
fractal and pull in pattern matches. do you trust Ma Bell
anymore?)
Also, they can put in on the alarm list that they run. so if you
speak near anyone/ anywhere they have wired, they gotcha.

Buy voicemasks.
lots of em
Try running two or more at once to really scramble your voice

But the best bet is
Don't Talk!
Get everyone in the team to put 3 into sign language
invent your own. just simple gestures to say 'Go that way'
'two enemy there' with more complex stuff for conversations.

And if they catch you, you can talk in a way they can't monitor

CHOPPER
Get any of the 'Stainless Steel Rat' books by Harry Harrison
read
learn
inwardly digest
