Thanks, interesting data -- however --
I'm an electrical engineer and have worked in this field for 50 years, sometimes around high power RF sources from kHz to GHz and I can still speak ( much to dismay of some :-) ). Furthermore, I have a few acquaintances who have worked around microwave systems, in fact some said they used to stand in front of radar transmitter antennas to get warm in the winter, and they seem ok, but I have no real data to back up their health now. I don't carry a cell phone often, though. I'd guess that if you ingest enough anti-oxidants and singlet oxygen quenchers, you'd be ok.

It is the electromagnetic discharge of the instantaneous pulses of microwave radiation. Cell towers are typically 20,000 to 50,000 watts. Read this letter http://www.ntia.doc.gov/files/ntia/us_doi_comments.pdf Radiation Impacts and Categorical Exclusions "There is a growing level of anecdotal evidence linking effects of non-thermal, non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation from communication towers on nesting and roosting wild birds and other wildlife in the U.S. Independent, third-party studies have yet to be conducted in the U.S. or Canada, although a peer-reviewed research protocol developed for the U.S. Forest Service by the Service's Division of Migratory Bird Management is available to study both collision and radiation impacts (Manville 2002). As previously mentioned, Balmori (2005) found strong negative correlations between levels of tower-emitted microwave radiation and bird breeding, nesting, and roosting in the vicinity of electromagnetic fields in Spain. He documented nest and site abandonment, plumage deterioration, locomotion problems, reduced survivorship, and death in House Sparrows, White Storks, Rock Doves, Magpies, Collared Doves, and other species. Though these species had historically been documented to roost and nest in these areas, Balmori (2005) did not observe these symptoms prior to construction and operation of the cellular phone towers. Balmori and Hallberg (2007) and Everaert and Bauwens (2007) found similar strong negative correlations among male House Sparrows. Under laboratory 'conditions, DiCarlo et al. (2002) raised troubling concerns about impacts of low-level, non-thermal electromagnetic radiation from the standard 915 MHz cell phone frequency on domestic chicken embryos- with some lethal results (Manville 2009). Given the findings of the studies mentioned above, field studies should be conducted in North America to validate potential impacts of communication tower radiation both direct and indirect - to migratory birds and other trust wildlife species." 50-100 times the normal incidence of "motor-neuron"/ALS around the Guam radar station --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
