another problem from towers

There has been quite a bit of discussion here abut problems from
transmitting towers of various kinds, but one aspect has been overlooked. The
following information is from www.electricalpollution.com, where you can also see a
waveform created by the strobe lights on these towers.
We have a tower about a mile from us that transmits radio signals to
boats on Lake Michigan. (So I was told.) We found the 25 MHz signal in the
ground of our yard, corresponding in time to the visible flash of the strobe.
It also corresponded in syncopated time with a buzz up my left leg. (Comes
into buildings via the pipes, wiring, etc.) I gave the tower company a
very, very hard time until they put the choke on, and the signal and the buzzing
stopped. They never admitted that they put it on (Initially they swore it
already had one, but their tech person told me otherwise.), but there is nothing
else out here in farm country putting out a frequency like that, that just
happens to synch with their light.
The frequencies introduced into the ground by all the tower equipment
may turn out to be the most harmful frequencies these various towers expose
people to. Nobody has done research on this, so far as I know.
At any rate, shielding a wall will do nothing to protect you from
frequecies that are radiating from all your wiring, water pipes, phone lines,
etcetera.

Strobing cell-tower lights installed without the RF Choke are hazardous to
your health.

In May 2001 some very high frequency signals appeared on equipment monitoring
electrical ground currents at a few dairy farms in Wisconsin. The signal was
traced to a nearby cell tower whose rotating beacon light had just recently
been changed to a strobing light. The origin of the signal was verified by
shutting off the strobing light momentarily. The signal on the monitoring equipment
disappeared while the light was off. The signal starts at about 25 MHz and
rings down from there. It is produced when the capacitors, which store up the
1000 volts or more needed to strobe the light, release that energy all at once
to strobe the light. Therefore, a high frequency and high voltage impulse is
released each time the light flashes. If the RF Choke is in place and the
utilities wires are adequate to carry the current back to the substation, there is
no problem. However, many companies, not realizing the problem they cause, have
opted to save the approximately $30 and omit the filter. The utility system,
in many areas, cannot return such a high frequency high voltage impulse to the
substation on the neutral wire, as it should. Therefore, it takes the path of
least resistance back to the substation. The path of least resistance is not
always the shortest path. Problems have been found as far as 6 miles from the
tower.
People unfortunate enough to live in the return path may experience symptoms
of Radiofrequency Sickness.

(Click to enlarge) These can include: sleeplessness or disturbed sleep,
fever, rash, nausea, inability to concentrate, thinking in a fog, short-term memory
problems, sore joints particularly hip joints, irritable bowel syndrome,
miscarriage, and birth defects. Symptoms, particularly the fever, clear up outside
of the exposure area as long as there is not continued exposure to high
frequencies from another source. Dairy farms unfortunate enough to be in the path
may experience decreased milk production, longer milking time, poor cow coat
and health, miscarriages, difficulty breeding cows back, and difficulty getting
cows to eat and drink properly.
These problems can be substantially cleared up by the cell tower companies
if they install the approximately $30 filter. Additionally, cell tower
companies should install filters on the electronic equipment running at the towers, so
that they are in compliance with the IEEE-519 rules. An ordinance requiring
compliance with the IEEE-519 was passed recently at the county level in a
county in Wisconsin. Follow the link to obtain information to assist with passage
of a similar ordinance by your local zoning board.
