[TowerTalk] Re: Rf Safety

[alsopb]

Bill,

Your conclusion is based upon assuming the algorithms used are
meaningul.  
Given that they are pure fiction for the exposure impact, I have
another
explanation for the "predicted" safety of standing next to a 50 kw
broadcast station antenna.

The regs that were adopted made sure that they would not negatively
impact Broadcasters by design.  If they did, you could be sure they
would not
have been adopted.
