Everything "wireless" passes through your body: Cause for health concern?

by DA Morales on Dec. 04, 2011, under Headline news
There is a vast invisible world interacting with our bodies 24/7, no spirits or
angels or other
supernatural entities needed.
Right now all the AM and FM channels are passing through your body. Right now
the local
TV channels are passing through your body. Shortwave radio, police and
emergency signals.
Nowadays it is not just your new wifi network that is added to the list, but
your neighbors? as
well. But now there are millions of other transmitters called cellphones and
all the phones
within a few miles of you are passing through your body right now, even if just
to sync the
email or Facebook while not in use.
Right now my laptop is completely wireless, with no power plug and no internet
cable, and yet
it communicates with you now.
But my body is closer to it than the wireless router, and if it can change the
order of ones and
zeros on a computer server miles away, or on the other side of the world even,
then what
could it be doing to my internal human-computer code such as the DNA in every
one of the
100 trillion cells in my body?
Desperate to understand what is happening to her family and her farm, Rall
contacts the
Environmental Protection Agency. She ends up talking to an EPA scientist named
Carl
Blackman, an expert on the biological effects of radiation from electromagnetic
fields (EMFs)
- the kind of radiofrequency EMFs (RF-EMFs) by which all wireless technology
operates,
including not just cell towers and cell phones but wi-fi hubs and wi-fi-capable
computers,
"smart" utility meters, and even cordless home phones.
"With my government cap on, I?m supposed to tell you you?re perfectly
safe," Blackman
tells her. "With my civilian cap on, I have to tell you to consider leaving."
via Radiation From Cell Phones and WiFi Are Making People Sick - Are We All
at Risk?.
The article above is a huge article and worth the read.
Perhaps a small cellphone is not dangerous to all, but what about that huge
microwave tower
outside that makes it possible?
All those huge power lines leading to it must be giving off a lot of energy
somewhere.
But it?s not just cell phones.
I know that I am also usually sensitive to appliances such as TVs being turned
on. Even if a
blank screen is on the monitor, I can "hear" it being turned on even if in a
different room, just
as you can hear the fridge going on an off, but with this there is a "static"
in the air.
Pretty soon we will have more and more signals in our homes, from baby monitor
signals to
smart readers for our utility meters, to cell phones, laptops, iPads, Rokus,
Nintendo Wii
controllers, bluetooth mice and keyboards and more, and that is just the
beginning.
Does it have an effect on us?
If the gravitational pull of a distant star has a nonzero effect on us, then I
would say yes, it
does. Just how dangerous that effect is depends on your sensitivity, but soon
we may all
pass our personal thresholds as radio transmissions increase.Standard rig :

Last weekend I put up the Wellbrook ALA1530 antenna in a backyard tree tying it
off in 3 branches to hold it in place at 40 degrees about 10 feet off the
ground. Not as high as I wanted, but it was nearly impossible to get it higher.
Since the weather was nice, I figured I'd put it up semi-permanently and test
it against the T2FD through the Winter DX season (mainly for EuroPirate's
hoping it would bring in enough signal with quieter reception). During this
first week, it was quite respectable but signal levels just a little below that
with the T2FD. Noise levels didn't seem to be improved at all. So I was a bit
disappointed. This morning conditions appeared rather poor around 1100; not a
PNG to be found and 120mb Aussies barely coming in. But by 1210 recheck, the
60mb was jumping with Chinese and Indians. I tried the Wellbrook and found
signals stunning and better than with the T2FD!! I quickly set up the Perseus
and recorded 4700-5100 from 1220-1235. Fortunately I got ther!
e just before signals started fading. It was reminiscent of the 70's when the
Chinese stations filled the area between 6500-7000. The T2FD is actually 'cut'
for 60 meters and is in the same general orientation, so I'm at a loss as to
why signals were better with the Wellbrook. Maybe it had something to do with
the arrival angle. I'll have to continue comparing reception of the antenna's
on Asian reception. Anyway I'm glad I didn't miss it. (24 Nov.)
BANGLADESH 4750 Bangladesh Betar 1219 Beautiful sub-cont. flute mx at recording
start. 1222-1227 M anncr w/W making comments in background. 1227 brief
sub-cont. mx bridge, more comments by M, then W at 1228. Some seemingly
deadair, then canned anmnt w/2 men followed by studio M anncr. Fading and
couldn't copy any ID at BoH. (24 Nov.)
INDIA 4880 AIR Lucknow 1219 tlk by M in low level, then haunting sub-cont.
flute mx w/M vcl and chorus started at 1220. M anncr again at 1227, the back to
mx at 1228. Good signal for them, and clear. (24 Nov.)
INDIA 4970 AIR Shillong Signal popped on at 1224:14 and sub-cont. mx already in
progress. Went off the air, but returned for good at 1224:30 w/continued mx. M
anmnts at 1229. Sounded like W anncr after BoH, but just not strong enough to
tell if it was the EG nx relay. Unfortunately was fading pretty quickly by
1230. (24 Nov.)
Unbelievable Chinese and Indian reception on 60 meters again in the 1200-1230
time period. Even better than Thursday!! Couldn't believe how strong Bangladesh
was at 1210 on 4750. And 4975 Tajikistan was clear as a bell. (26 Nov.)
PAPUA NEW GUINEA 3315 R. Manus 1135 fair strength but audio seemed weak. Mx pgm
w/W anncr. Hrd rapid-paced M anncr join in later after 1212. Sounded like soft
Island mx around 1236. Peaked at that time. Still going at 1300. Nice to see
this back on. Only other in 90mb noted were 3260 and 3205. (4 Dec.)
INDIA?? 4760 AIR Leh?? Been hearing a signal here peaking at the time of the
other Indians. Really not strong enough to get an idea what it is though. Is
Port Blair off and is this Leh?? (4 Dec.)
The Wellbrook continues to outperform the T2FD (slightly) on 60 meters. Decent
conditions again this morning to China and the sub-continent. Shillong 4970 was
about the best I've heard it. Caught AIR Lucknow with the IS around 1215. Is
Makassar off the air?? Haven't seen a hint of a carrier there. (4 Dec.)

** CHINA. Firedrake Dec 4:
12600, good at 1447; none in the 9s, 10s, 11s, 13s, 14s, 15s, 16s, 17s, 18s.
At 1524 none at all found, not even 12600
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 13750, Dec 4 at 1410, RHC on nonsensical Sunday-only frequency, and
this time 9850 is absent, as `Amigos de Cuba` themed mailbag program is
starting: no dissing allowed there!
I did not start early enough to find whether 13750 was on 13690 instead before
1400 as last week due to jamming VOA on 13750 daily until 1400. 13750, not 9850
also applied to `En Contacto` at 1435-1451. Manolo keeps promoting the Dec 25
show, repeated Jan 1, which will name all their listener-contactors during
2011y (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CYPRUS. 15240-15265, Dec 4 at 1418, intruding OTH radar, hi pulse rate,
presumed from here? Mainly blasting a broadcaster on 15245, i.e. Poland in
Russian via Woofferton UK (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** FRANCE [and non]. 7220, Dec 4 at 0615, RFI is back in business, English
news, or rather sports segment about football, instead of strike-filling
RFI-Musique; but 7390 French service is still in musique. English also JBA on
// 9765, but 7220 goes off as usual at 0630, apparently mistaken feed instead
of scheduled Hausa. Other Hausa frequency 9805 too weak to be sure of.
17690, Dec 4 at 1421 via GUIANA FRENCH, RFI with music, but then Spanish
narration, so this service too is (temporarily?) back to programming instead of
RFI-Musique fill. Is the strike over or not? Seems they `roll` it, hitting and
missing different services from day to day.
17620, Dec 4 at 1427, however, the French service direct, is still en gr?ve
with RFI-Musique, including an ID in English as RFI-Music, then didgeridoo, in
laudable eclecticism (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MAURITANIA [and non]. 7245, Dec 4 at 0623, no signal from IGIM, but next
tuneby 0628 there it is, chanting, as 250 kW SMG has also just popped on
adjacent 7250, taking over from 10 kW usually inaudible Vatican Garden unit
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TUNISIA. 7375, Dec 4 until 0630* IWT closes abruptly, apparently ex -0627*
so reset the timer? IWT = short for the Arabic ID as in WRTH 2011:
``Idh`atu-l-Wataniya at-Tunisiya``. Since it`s all in Arabic, why keep
referring to it by French name? // 7335 continues, free of co-channel Vatican
after 0620 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 9810, Sunday Dec 4 at 2352 UT, middle repeat airing of RHC`s `En
Contacto` in progress as Manolo conveys good news that the special QSL cards
designed by a Guatemalan listener, commemorating Manolo & Malena`s 35th
anniversary on RHC (tho she has now retired/withdrawn), of which only ten were
printed, have been reprinted, so it`s not too late to send a report and get one
of those rarities. Responding to an inquiry, Manolo mentions something else
that gets my attention: in giving the new times for EC since Nov 13, he says
that Cuba`s time change was on that date.
I thought it was Oct 30, as in previous years it was the last Sunday in
October; in 2010: Oct 31. I`m quite sure that when I checked
http://www.timeanddate.com/time/dst/2011.html
in late October 2011, it did show Oct 30, 2011, but now it too shows Sunday Nov
13, 2011 as the DST end date. So that explains why RHC`s Spanish and some of
its other programming abruptly shifted one real UT hour later on that date. Why
Nov 13? Just to be out of step with the Great Satan, er, I mean Imperalismo
Yanqui; and the rest of the world.
It does not explain why any serious international SW service would be governed
by local time changes --- either stay on UT constantly, or change on the dates
in your target area(s), NOT local time, which should be irrelevant (unless you
are really talking to yourselves). Nor does it explain why any DST is necessary
in a tropical country where there is little variation in sunrise-sunset times.
Manolo gave these Sunday times for EC: 1435, ``sobre 2340``, meaning
approximately --- must have started around then this week, but some weeks
already at 2335; and 0235 [UT Mondays].
I had started listening on 9810, then found 9710 was stronger, but modulation
there cutting out below peaks; skipping 25m, 13690 was better, and 13640 was
best. Why would the European antenna roughly 90 degrees off from here surpass
the S American antenna, roughly opposite from here? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX

** OKLAHOMA. 89.5 MHz, Dec 3 at 1830 UT, parked near the intersexion of West OK
Garriott and Oakwood Rd, after consuming three free pancakes at IHOP, there is
a fully-quieted strong signal here with hum. I assume it is a nearby car with
an RF feeder left on. In the next hour I drive a mile west and a mile east and
I am still hearing it, altho starting to lose out. That`s a lot of range for an
RF feeder. Then Dec 4 at 2150 I am again hearing it as far as another two-three
miles east, toward downtown Enid.
FCC FM Query for OK does not show any likely sources; there is a 205-watt CSN
satellator in OKC, which is enough to block 50 kW KWGS Tulsa from getting into
the OKC area, but that can`t be what I am getting in Enid. Must keep an ear on
89.5. See DXLD 11-18 where I had another 89.5 carrier last May, discovered
right across the street from IHOP at Braum`s dairy store. If it keeps up I
really must try to track it down exactly. Or maybe someone`s `part 15` warming
up for an Xmas sound and light show like we had last winter? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SPAIN. 6055, Dec 5 at 0007 I notice that REE`s English hour is instead dead
air, open carrier. I leave a receiver on there for a bihour: no automatic
timesignal at 0030, FWIW. Still DA past 0100 when would normally go into
Castilian, still DA at 0145; finally at 0152 Spanish modulation cuts on, and
timesignal is back at 0200. Someone finally woke up at Noblejas. Fortunately
for regular listeners, I think the English shows for Sundays are just repeats
from earlier in the week (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. 9430, Dec 4 at 2348, Xmas music with organ has taken over
9425 where I had been listening to Hindi comedy music, including yodeling a
bihour earlier in the madrugada there. It`s // 9355, 15400, and best by far
15440. So YFR is still emitting only one program stream from Okeechobee, due to
``meltdown`` of automation system a few weeks ago, all English instead of
Spanish, Portuguese, French or English as originally scheduled for B-11 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1593 monitoring: starting 0333 UT Monday Dec 5
confirmed on Area 51 webcast,
http://www.splatterbox.us:5110/listen.pls
following Larry Will`s Free Radio (Live) program; and presumably also on WBCQ
5110v-CUSB. This was a last minute change, after announcement that WOR could no
longer be carried after 0400 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

December 1st, Romania's National Day, saw the official opening of Radio
Chisinau, the Romanian Radio Broadcasting Corporation's first branch station in
the Republic of Moldova, offering high-standard programming to the local
people. Radio Chisinau is a quality broadcaster, powered by a team of young
professionals. This new station offers insight on cultural life, as well as
modern news and entertainment programs. Vlad Turcanu, editor-in-chief with
Radio Chisinau, talked about the circumstances in which this station was born.
Vlad Turcanu: "The concept of public institution in the Republic of Moldova
failed in the early 2000s, after having gained significant shape in the 90s. We
had to limit ourselves to what private stations offered. These had poorly
structured programs, without the editorial effort to satisfy the needs of
listeners with a rich culture and a thirst for knowledge. I hope that bringing
the Romanian public radio network to Chisinau will reconfigure the market and
will boost its development."
Radio Chisinau broadcasts on number of frequencies covering most of Moldova. In
Chisinau, the station can be heard on the FM band on 89.6 MHz, as well as
online. A series of cultural events were held to celebrate the launch of Radio
Chisinau. These included a special concert in the city's Central Square, with a
number of Romanian and Moldovan performers.
This project is part of the Romanian Radio Broadcasting Corporation's strategy
to offer programming to listeners in the Republic of Moldova. Radio Romania
hopes that expanding the network for Romanian-speaking listeners across the
Prut River, on the airwaves or online, will provide a direct, fair, balanced
and impartial source of information, while promoting Romanian cultural,
artistic and linguistic values. -from Radio Rumania Int. web page-
