When the BA hunters caught Talene, they all channeled the Spirit themselves, when they re-swore the do-not-lie Oath and said they weren't BA (I just checked).
But I'm guessing that the "formal" way is for someone else to channel the Spirit (like when an Accepted becomes AS), and that the formal way was used when all the WT AS retook the Oaths and swore they weren't DFs.

Except that the best way to 'defeat' the Oath rod is - not to take the Oaths at all
