Way back in the earliest days, when Alexanderson Alternators were used to generate 20kW of RF,
The one I visited in Grimeton, Sweden put out 250 kW
Alexanderson himself often slept regularly in his commercial station next to an operating transmitting alternator, with no RF harm to his health.
(I thinked he lived to his 90th decade).
900 years! Wow! He must have been over 800 years old when he was designing HF alternators.
