if i use the comms device now if it stays open all phase? so that if someone gets one during the phase i will be connected? i dont want to use it early and miss my window. if thats how it works then i want to use it, if not then i need to think about it.

##conditionally use comms device

It relies on two people using one, so if one person used it after you used it, you would connect anyway.

Phase 7:
You activate the unit, but there's no response.
