Topband: Radiation Power Levels

[Jon Rudy]

Hello Topbandaids:
=20
My 160 Inverted L is very close to our living accomidations.  I am =
running 1 KW and the radial field is strung all throughout the yard and =
drive way.  I even have 4 radials I stretch out on the cement car port =
after dark.  The L goes up and the horizontal section is right over the =
house at about 45 feet.  We have a tin roof. =20

Question:  Are we living to close to the RF field?  If someone is =
standing out by the gate, 15 feet from the feed point is that to close?  =
Is standing over the radial field (30 some radials all short 10-20 feet) =
a problem?=20
Does having the L over the house, yet us under the tin roof, provide =
'protection or shadow'?  Any thoughts are appreciated.=20
