We recently ordered broadband from BT and were sent the BT Home Hub as a
default. But not a problem, we simply rang them up and asked them to send us an old-style wired Voyager 220 modem, and they did no - no trouble, no charge. They also sent a bag to return the Home Hub in. Worth knowing that this option exists! Sue has never had any ES problems with the Voyager.

I have stated that my wife did not react to a strong DECT signal, although she *felt* it, but a few minutes later she experienced strong reactions by a very weak DECT signal, which I also measured. DECT signals consist also of frequency hopping, pulsrate of 100 Hz and bandwith of 1880-1900 MHz. However, it is the carried information which is the determining factor for biological reactions. (Listen to the difference in modulation between a DECT modulation and the generated waveforms by me in my collection.) And that comes into the controversial field of longitudinal waves. They travel over a longer or greater distance than the normal transversal waves. When passing through a shielding, their properties can change also.

Okey, so if you name these recordings "haarp" on your site, you think that that particular signal comes from Alaska?
Or is just a signal you don't know where it comes from? gr, Stephen. --- In [hidden email], "charles" <charles@...> wrote: > > Hello Stephen, > > I recorded them many years ago in our appartment in Rotterdam, which was shielded very well against high frequency. > > I used my VLF or HAARP Detektor. > > Greetings, > Charles Claessens > member Verband Baubiologie > www.milieuziektes.nl > www.milieuziektes.be > www.hetbitje.nl > checked by Norton > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "stephen_vandevijvere" <stephen_vandevijvere@...> > To: <[hidden email]> > Sent: Thursday, June 10, 2010 5:38 PM > Subject: [eSens] EMF recordings Charles > > > Charles, > > A couple of monhs ago I also listened to your "emf-recordings", I didn't feel that much, but when listening to the HAARP-files I got very bad, chest/heart pain, I felt it for at least 2 hours... > > http://www.milieuziektes.nl/Pagina109.html > > Where were the HAARP files recorded?

In reply to this post by R. Ticle
Here are two useful papers on DECT cordless phones:
* http://www.electricalpollution.com/documents/08_Havas_EPetition_DECT.pdf (Petition by Magda Havas) * http://www.tetrawatch.net/papers/non-stop_dect.pdf (Explains that DECT is non-stop) Note that prior models of cordless phones were only radiating during usage. However, the DECT model is non-stop. Similarly, Wi-Fi routers are also non-stop, and relatively strong, esp. at 1 meter or less. * http://www.emfacts.com/wifi/WiFi_A4_print.pdf * http://www.powerwatch.org.uk/pdfs/20091005_hhl_wifi.pdf When using the Electrosmog Detector, there are some caveats. It's a great tool for determining the type of radiation (Wi-Fi vs. DECT vs. cell tower vs. blackberry vs. other cell phone). However, people may get misled because with respect to volume-- some types of signals may be exaggerated and others minimized. E.g., with the electrosmog detector, non-DECT analog cordless phones, iPhones, and Wi-Fi might get weak sounds, but DECT cordless phones, blackberry, and some cell towers may get strong sounds. A different meter I tried (CORNET) found that the cordless phone which was weakly picked up by the electrosmog detector was actually quite strong. CORNET may not be the most accurate (got differing results between the 3GHz and 8GHz versions), but it seems good enough for personal use. I have found also that others prefer to see numbers than to hear sounds. --- In [hidden email], "R.

Hello,
I read these papers and it's scary indeed. No wonder I was feeling so awful. I had all of the symptoms noted. If there are so many people being affected I wonder why manufacturers don't or won't produce a cordless phone that is not DECT and safer for all. There would be many who would want to buy. I would be first on the line. Presently I found a cordless phone that I had more than fifteen years ago. Definitely not digital. I'm charging it and will try it out tomorrow. Fingers crossed. Estelle [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] |
I've heard of one, called Orchid, which is modified not to be 24/7 but
from what I know, it seems to be for the UK: http://www.wiredchild.org/parents/61-products-to-reduce-exposure.html It would be nice if they distributed it internationally. It's expensive though, and you'd probably need also a phone adapter that can convert from UK to US, as well as power adapter. While I'd personally still avoid cordless technologies, still it's definitely better than 24/7 radiation, and I think they claim to adaptively lower the radiation to as low as necessary. Some cell phones also have this power adaptive mechanism, you'd think they could put it in cordless phones as well. I wish manufacturers could change DECT and Wi-Fi to emit only during usage... but for them to advertise it would imply they knew it might be dangerous? With police radar (also EMF), they had modified it to emit only during usage, after the concerns about health effects. I wish they'd do the same thing for DECT and Wi-Fi. Any engineers out there? or people who know how to produce in mass quantities? Note that even short temporary call could be unhealthy: http://www.youtube.com/user/magdahavas#p/u/7/L7E36zGHxRw Click "see all" to see Magda's other videos-- they're a very helpful tool to share with friends and family who don't understand the EMF issues. |

I need to replace my dect phone. Do they ALL say dect on them? How doI make sure I don't get one of those?
Any recommendations on what is out there on new phones?

Hi Estelle, the phone you have unearthed is likely to be a hissy analogue
model, I first noticed ES effects from these nearly 10yrs ago and stopped using them, certainly would not use a DECT, but seimens and orchid do low rad versions, both have a cut off to the standing signal when the phone is placed back in the cradle, just better off using a speaker phone though. puk In a message dated 13/06/2010 03:25:53 GMT Daylight Time, [hidden email] writes: I read these papers and it's scary indeed.

Hi Kooky,
Surprised BT no longer offer the wired BT Voyager 220 as an option. If they offer to send a Home Hub without DECT, then I suspect they mean without the DECT handset, and THAT means WITH the DECT base station silently blasting you 24/7 with DECT pulsing microwaves. Any wired router from PC World/ebay etc will do just as well - you are NOT bound to BT routers to make your BT broadband work! And most wifi routers will turn their wifi base station transmissions off when you disable wireless in the router software, I just can't guarantee which. So, if BT offer a DECT hub replacement- ask them the model number/name and report back!

Kooky,
You know that if you have a DECT base, it transmits whether you use it or not. And that goes for the BT home hub too. The idea that they will one day BT will allow their DECT handset users (not really 'cell phones; as we know them) to roam and piggy back off others' home hubs is informed source speculation, I'd be surprised if they don't though; it makes perfect sense (they already do it with wifi via 'BT FON J) _____ From: [hidden email] [mailto:[hidden email]] On Behalf Of Kooky Sent: 22 June 2010 09:25 To: [hidden email] Subject: RE: [eSens] Cordless Phones PS.

This leaves us free to choose between headphones and speakers etc, the call quality is brilliant, and anyway, lots of our friends are getting on Skype. It's the way to go! Every call is recorded (handy) and my entire contact list is available with a click, and it's always on even when I go away to someone else's house, I just log on as me. Second - we CANNOT use our corded landline phones at all!!! It varies, but we get similar aches and pains to using a mobile phone, can you believe it? Not quite so bad, but still bad! It happens on most/all corded landline phones we try. I think the long wires to the exchange pick up stray stuff and deliver them to your ear (or ADSL signals get through the filter?) When I rarely use my home phone line I use an old FM Cordless (with the sticky out antenna!) I got to say it works a TREAT!!! Again, you can find them on ebay from time to time - I guess search FM CORDLESS PHONE, or car boot sales, or WANTED on freecycle etc. What I can tell you is DECT is a no-no for us! Actually a nooooooooooooooooo-nooooooooooooooooooo !!! And not just the handset when on a call - but the continuous base station emissions. Output from DECT base is "twice that from a mobile phone mast": http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-376279/Cordless-home-phones-sparks -radiation-fear.html Our neighbour has a DECT phone (ours is a semi-detached house) and when they turn it on it completely disables us - after several hours we can't function, think, walk straight and it's painful. As we both work from home it's impossible. We bought them an 'Orchid' phone (www.lowradiation.co.uk <http://www.lowradiation.co.uk/> ) so they can have their DECT but with the Orchid that terrible DECT Base Station is not transmitting 24/7 - only when on a call and only at the power needed to connect, not full power. That works fine for us and luckily they were ok to do it. Don't think Orchid is available in US, nor any equivalent, if it was me, I would find a way to adapt it! (only for a neighbour - we would never use one!) In the UK there is a further complication. Our largest ISP is BT and they supply a free BT Home Hub to every broadband customer. What they don't tell them is that it has a DECT base station in it - whether you use it or not (a DECT handset only comes free with their top rate "Total Broadband", so very few actually use the DECT function - but it always on anyway). Now: if you disable Telephony in the hub's software, the DECT stays ON! Eeeek! And it's a particularly powerful one. Why would they do that? It was a mystery to me until I discovered that they are creating in effect another mobile phone network, so one user can take their DECT handset with them wherever they go and piggy back off others' Home Hubs without them ever even realising it. And this is why they are so powerful - it's crafty and sneaky - BT are [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] |
