Hi, While not completely indispensable to human life, wireless communications in general are certainly very useful to many folks. In relation to the tower in question, some reading and some action may be advisable. Here and here at cancer.org are links about the effects of cellular communications on human health. If one is so inclined, it might be a good idea to measure the RF field strength at the area in question for any harmful levels. It is likely to be a futile exercise but may possibly provide some peace of mind. Limit your (and your children's) cell phone use. Cell phones contain a (low-power) wireless transceiver and in addition are generally placed directly against one's head. Finally, one should be careful not to erroneously conflate RF telecommunications with either radioactivity(ionizing radiation) OR microwave ovens(dielectric heating). The electromagnetic spectrum is very large, and electromagnetic radiation in some form normally exists everywhere, whether there are cell phones or not. regards,Basil
