Antenna on roof, "reparation". Worried, need advice

kara
The landlord wants to repair a satellite antenna on the building, because one of the tenants can't watch 1 of the programs.
I live on top floor, worst place ever for me (but did not think about it when I got it), and the satellite dish is really near my desk, it's an attic building, very low roof, so my head is not far from that dish. I actually had not idea that is one there so near my head.
Now he wants to repair the thing, change some parts or something. I am worried for different reasons. Will the repaired part make the radiation worse? What if it is not really a repair, but a way to add a sender, antenna, hidden little mast or anything else?
Here in Germany, are there some legislations, saying if I can have a say in this?
Btw, I never sleep in this flat, (stay at friends place), and can't stay more than a couple of hours at a time here, because of headaches and other serious problems. Maybe will be able to get another place in a couple month, but I am really worried for my health now.
Landlord is coming in a couple of hours to change the part. Worried if it will worsen the radiation

I'm sorry about the situation at your place.  

I just wanted to add some support.  I don't know about satellite antennas.  
It's good that you look as soon as you can for a place to stay and sleep that is healthier for you.  :(   Technology used to be exciting for me and now I hate it.  

Be safe!

Thanks. Actually the landlord decided to put another antenna a bit further away, so it's ok for now. The old one is still there, but not in use anymore. It's actually quite good to have direct access to the roof from my room, can see where antennas or other are placed.

Charles reported that being straight behind the disk remains problematic also at larger distances.
So if you want to play it safe, just avoid this if that could be an issue ( depending on where it is located ).
