Ya' know, I haven't been the same since enjoying the view and a few cocktails at the Sun Dial . back in the day .

Isn't the radiation more intense when the signal is generated right next to your scull? I wouldn't know but that is what I heard. Cell phones are low powered but they are held right up against the head. - Jed

But, the cell phones are typically 100 milliWatts; whereas, the broadcast signals are in the megaWatt range. There are levels considered safe for non-ionizing radiation; however, those numbers vary from country to country. For example, Russia considers safe levels which are 100 times less than what we consider safe. Truth is, no one really knows what is a safe level. T

In the meanwhile I am going to have some metal plates implanted over my skull... no over the whole body... newer phones are always connected and trasmitting due to internet connection. mic 2011/8/10 Terry Blanton hohlr...@gmail.com: On Wed, Aug 10, 2011 at 4:14 PM, Jed Rothwell jedrothw...@gmail.com wrote: Isn't the radiation more intense when the signal is generated right next to your scull?

A simple aluminum hat will suffice. But it must be grounded. T attachment: Hat.jpg
