Hi Cindi,

Consider this, if that building houses the local telephone provider,
they are likely to have antennas that are pointed to nearby hilltops or
towers, using a microwave point to point system. If so, consider it is
not just transmitting to be concerned about, but receiving as well. That
building is likely the bullseye for the next antenna in the chain, and
therefore should have higher levels of EMR. _Behind_ it as well. Any
buildings behind the antenna, on a hill, (level with the antenna) are a
bad place to be.

Are the antennas pointed up or horizontal?

This can also explain why some places are hotter, even though there
appears to be nothing nearby. If you draw a line on a map, between the
hilltops where antennas are connecting a relay chain, the area directly
under that line is subject to some spillover, or scatter, as the beam is
not as perfectly focused as a laser. This level of worry does not come
to the top of the list, until towers and neighbors with wifi have
already been mitigated or avoided.
