[TowerTalk] EMI concerns;Detectors/Radiation Allergies

[BRENT BAUM]

I hope someone has the foresight to track her symptoms through the full sunspot cycle. We might be able to save money on sensitive electronics, beacons, etc. if we can make friends with our neighbors who are natural detectors and can call us when they sense a band opening. :) BTW the line in the article about her self-diagnosis tends to be a dead give away as to her reliability. I once had a client who received messages from an empty radio cabinet.
