I was looking into this at work for a 2KW 5GHz system with 6ft dishes and located an FCC site that should be of interest. There is info relating to Amateur Radio Stations and it is very thorough (60
There is a site http://n5xu.ae.utexas.edu/rfsafety/ that has fill in the blanks forms for RF levels. It's easy to use and allows "what if" calculations. Just do a set for each band at your highest po

You might mention that his microwave oven could be a much greater concern -- and if you're so inclined, buy a microwave leak detector and let him borrow it -- it would show your concern, knowledge, a
If you want the official info, its FCC Bulletin 65 (edition 97-1). Amateur radio is specifically discussed in Supplement B. Both can be downloaded from the FCC website or the government printing offi
Todd, Seems to me that you want to find some way to emphasize that the exposure your neighbor will get from your installation is way way smaller than what he will get from having a cellphone in his p

I believe there was a book entitled "The Zapping of America" that espoused the idea. Still trying to figure out his agenda.. Sure has caused trouble since though. Gil, W1RG Weather Stations", and lot
go on the ARRL web site and get the maximum permitted RF exposure calculator. It will a.) show you're in compliance with accepted standards and b.) show them that they get far more RF exposure from t
Agreed. The original term for MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) was Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging. The Nuclear was dropped for it's negative connotation. If you asked people whether they'd rather
I concur. I had a friend who was going through a tower permitting process that included notification of neighbors. One of the neighbors, a medical doctor, started writing letters warning the other ne
