We tried an ethernet switch, but it wants to make new IP addresses, so
had to get a router to plug into the cable co's box. Yes input is coax & output is Ethernet.

Hi Patricia,
"Dirty air" is another way to describe electrosmog. Anything wireless makes dirty air, but noisy electronics are the issue here being discussed. Any collection of electronics that are poorly designed or engineered, do "Leak" or emit electromagnetic noise, which is what we measure and hear with RF Meters. Any computer processor running at a high frequency will by it's very operation make noise. The only question of relevance, is how much, and how strong. ie. is it tolerable, and how much distance is needed to keep away from it. The Electrosmog meters, Cornet, Acoustimeter, etc., measure and convert to sound the dirty air, so we can measure which electronics and equipment are Noisy and Undesirable, or Intolerable. The only ways to "filter the air" is by shielding, reflecting, and absorbing the energy in the air. I wouldn't equate shielding to filtering. Not the same thing really. Don't forget I have one page myself, devoted to measuring electronics in my attempts to find or make a quieter computer. Just changing the processor speed, or changing the power supply, or any component inside the box, can and does change the noise levels. http://seahorseCorral.org/ehs2.html Stewart Patricia Robinett wrote: > so how is dirty air made? by dirty electricity? > if a filter collects the electricity > > -- http://seahorseCorral.org |
Hello Stewart,
The Electrosmog meters, Cornet, Acoustimeter, etc., are NOT capable to measure what I call *dirty air*, because they cannot measure from 5kHz to 30MHz, and they lack the antennas for it.

they specified a tech spec re RAM processor and memory and I didn't have enough RAM or a powerful enough processor - they wanted 256MB RAM and I only have 224 MB [i know I can upgrade that fairly easily] but re the processor they specified I would need 300MHz - mine is a celeron (R) CPU 2.93 GHz - and I wasn't sure whether it was powerful enough - my PC was bought in 2006 and I find of thought that it would be a good idea to upgrade now before they stop producing PCs and only produce tablets etc which seems to be the way things are going - if i'm wrong in thinking this please let me know - would save me a lot of time and money!!!

Yes, I think you are wrong. :-) Like you said, you can easily upgrade the RAM. Your 2.93 Ghz Celeron is 10 times faster than their minimum requirement of 300Mhz. They are NOT going to stop making PCs. At least, not for a long time. If you want to upgrade your PC, that's fine, but I don't think the above reasons are good reasons to do it. Marc |

I don't think "dirty electricity" is the term to use when referring to cell phone towers and cellphones. Dirty electricity is what is inside your power lines. Cell phone towers and cellphones emit EMF (or maybe you could call it RF), but they do not emit "dirty electricity". Marc |

Hi Marc
Thanks for this! I am very glad to be wrong since it will save me money in this case!!! Like I said at the outset of this thread I am not in any way shape or form techy and I had no idea that my processor was good enough for this spec. So you are right Marc - not good enough reasons to upgrade - I hear what you say re the fact that they are not going to stop making PCs but my feel is that PCs are going to soon go the way of analogue TVs and landlines - they will be obsolete by virtue of smartphones and tablets and the need for ever increasing connectedness and portability and because there will be no demand for a big clunky thing that takes up room manufacturers won't make them and those they do sell will be very pricey. Just my take - maybe you know differently and if so please let us know. Having said all that I am still thinking about a new PC - altho it is a bit of russian roulette re whether something is ok in the shop and then I can't cope with it in my home environment.

Also, people who develop software, websites, etc. are not going to do that on a tablet or smartphone. Plus, most of the Internet is hosted on PCs. So PCs are here to stay (although I agree that consumer sales will fall off) Marc |

I say that because I can observe a huge difference in symptoms with different video refresh rates & resolution, even though the PC and monitor remain otherwise the same. Also, the monitor LCD backlight setting makes a big difference. I have never found any compelling evidence to suspect the PC's CPU as being a major contributor to my symptoms. Marc |
Hi Patricia,
Too many definitions to keep track of... Charles also corrected me on "dirty air", I concede. Marc has it right. Dirty electricity is only for the unwanted noise on the AC wiring, on the power lines. RF is a very broad term, for all radio frequencies. For unwanted noise in the air, let's stick to Electrosmog and/or EMR (Electro Magnetic Radiation) Get away from it? It is getting harder to do so, as those who have sought out quiet corners of our respective countries have found out. Even the dead zones here have shrunk to only a few deep valleys. I can't predict how long the dead zones will last, with all the spectrum being auctioned off, and all the "Broadband for all rural areas" being pushed. But for now they do still exist. >> thanks, stewart. >> by 'noise' i am assuming you mean the amount >> of dirty electricity being generated. >> and dirty electricity is what is output by cell phones >> and towers and electrical devices... and there's >> no real getting away from it? >> Marc Martin wrote: > I don't think "dirty electricity" is the term to use when > referring to cell phone towers and cellphones.

Not even mine? Same motherboard, same processor, same power supply, running same program, I have photographed and measured with the same meter and antenna in the same position next to the chip... and got results from 0.18 V/m to 0.87 V/m (0.085 - 2.002 mW/m2) (near field). I have swapped out multiple processors, video cards, power supplies, and changed the processor's multiply rate and clock speed, and found it makes a drastic difference. Even going into the BIOS settings, and turning off Spread Spectrum makes a noticeable difference. Also graphics cards are "hit and miss". When I found a particular Nvidia chipset I liked, I tried 3 different manufacturers implementations of it, and all 3 were different, none were tolerable. Most newer GPU cards are so noisy, I have stopped trying to see if I can upgrade. I admit I never got those tests photographed and measured enough to add to my page...Too much work when your head hurts. Just what would be compelling evidence?

Oh, sorry, I didn't mean this "in general", but rather in my own limited experiences with my own PC equipment. Unlike you, I have NOT experimented to the degree of swapping out CPUs! Marc |

Hi Marc,
When I moved away from a power tower very close to my home my body had severe reactions to the move in many ways. Some were good - such as a cooling process. Others were not good, such as severe discomfort, anxiety and hyperactive thyroid returning for 3 months immediately after the move. The severe discomfort and anxiety were relieved as soon as I returned to the old house to maintain it as I not not as yet sold it. For all practical purposes it appeared that my body was indeed going through some sort of withdrawal symptoms. I lived near the power tower for 30 years and my best guess would be that my body somehow adjusted to it, just like a body would adjust to use of drugs.Hence an addiction had occurred. I researched EMF addiction after this happened to me and there seems to be ample evidence that the body can become physiologically addicted to EMF.according to what I read. What is your viewpoint on this? Has anybody else here experienced anything similar to this?.
