Occasionally I would have to go out to the ABC tower at Brandon, Sth of Townsville. When you drove under the feeder cable the radio in the car would come on even when the radio was turned off. ABC of course. Then if you wanted to listen to the radio when you were at the base of the tower all you had to do was put the big screw driver up against on of the supports. ABC came in loud & clear. It was very interesting.

Oh & my Platoon Commander would get radio calls in his tooth fillings sometimes when we were on patrol in Sth VN.

Mobile phones are blamed for big increase in kids developing brain tumors. Because of skull thickness kids are more susceptible. In the US where there is no specific laws governing phone towers and i presume that means their output. Various health problems are rising.
Interference from phone and radio towers can effect some cars electronic systems.
Bazz is sympathetic to the industry, but EMF are for real and can be a danger, for long term exposure.
My tinnitus is the result of long term industrial exposure, and not a cigarette butt in the ear

Mobile phones are not blamed for any increase in kids developing brain tumors.

I suggest that if you are so worried you should wear a tin foil hat.

579 is easily confused. There is no connection between hearing am radio
signals in your ear and titanus. They quite different things.

Re tooth filings, I have heard about that one also. I think fillings these days are a plastic.

The most exposure to EMF are welders.
The second most exposure is Electric blankets.
Then the environment we live in, the house.
EMF is everywhere, it does have potential to cause harm.
Since the mid ninety's kids with brain tumors has increased and that coincides with kids having mobile phones in the US.
It was not me that said something about radio waves and tinnitus.
Bazz just made that up.

579,

My arthritis only gives me 1 day's warning. Between us, we're pretty good weather forecasters huh?

I believe you're right - there appears to be a definite correlation between brain tumours in children and mobile phones. Of course the phone companies will probably deny thatstill, as they have since it was first suggested their product was harmful.
