Wind turbines are a separate issue here. The problem that my particular research addresses is a slew of electricity grid derived emissions. The first is 40MHz B-PLC/BPL and its associated microwave component - WHEN IN CERTAIN CONFIGURATIONS. The second at low frequencies as a result of electricity in the power lines interacting harmonically - DUE TO DC RECTIFIERS MOUNTED/INSTALLED ON POWER LINES. The former is reflecting, attenuating and radiating, dragging large amounts of electrical power associated electrons with it as it does so (i.e. amplified). The latter case's resulting subharmonic LF is literally dragged from the power lines along with the BPL emissions. That's about as "layman" as I can get it, it is highly technical, extemely complex, but provable.
Doesn't matter what end result the electrical utilities are going for. There is a much more stable and non-damaging alternative that is cheaper and upgradeable. Yes, there are always proponents and opponents in any new technology roll out. Yes, politics are always there regardless of from which sector it is derived. And yes, there are always those that don't know what the hell they are talking (ranting) about. I have steered clear of anyone of questionable credibility. It would appear to me that your credibility is shot. I am associated only with myself in this matter. I do not want to see your reports; this matter is a totally different ball-game. I am tackling it how I see fit - The right way.
