[Towertalk] deed restrictions

[Chris BONDE]

There is another thing coming, and  depending upon the explanation might 
harm Hams.

The tall tower!!  There is a place in the south coast of BC that allow a 
company to replace the tower with another one.  Now this tower opens garage 
doors, makes VCR inoperable, unless the owner stand in one place, prevents 
vehicle owners from opening their keyless vehicles, turns off microwave 
ovens, plus a few other things.  The people are wondering what it might do 
to their health.  That big bad tower!!

I wonder what power and how many different frequencies (and at what 
frequency) exits at tha site?  Would a very flare shoot high enough to burn 
something?
