I've been reluctant to get DirecTV because of the bad experiences reported here. Cable is more expensive, but at least it's tolerable! It sounds like the worst place to be is behind the dish itself, although I'm sure the converter box is also a source of problems. Marc |
Oh boy, I am thinking about living in my RV for now & wanted to add satellite dish so I'd have some entertainment. I wonder if that will be ok for me.

When we go camping & don't plug in, I am just fine in the RV. I am considering renting an Rv space for the winter because you know I am living outsideright now & it will be cold soon.
So there will be hookups there & other RV's with satellite & using heat. Plus you know they have 50 amp electrical there. I don't know if I can tolerate it. Anyone know if that is an issue? Any experience with RV parks? It's scary for me because I am soo reactive. I'm staying in Rio Rico in themiddle of no where but in a distance; there is that cell tower I can see. GEEZ. Can you ever escape. --- On Thu, 10/30/08, Marc Martin <[hidden email]> wrote: From: Marc Martin <[hidden email]> Subject: Re: [eSens] tv satellite To: [hidden email] Date: Thursday, October 30, 2008, 1:53 PM > Oh boy, I am thinking about living in my RV for now & wanted to add > satellite dish so I'd have some entertainment.

There are two things to considerate:
1. The straight back of the dish may radiate longitudinal waves. 2. Normally the receiver works with digital signals. Those signales are coverted in the LCD TV set. And this LCD TV may have therefore other imaging signals on the screen. Quite different from the normal analogue signals. Listen to the sounds on: http://www.milieuziektes.nl/Pagina109.html *LCD TV + digital satellite receiver.* Greetings, Charles Claessens member Verband Baubiologie www.milieuziektes.nl www.milieuziektes.be www.hetbitje.nl checked by Bitdefender ----- Original Message ----- From: "angela england" <[hidden email]> To: <[hidden email]> Sent: Thursday, October 30, 2008 9:24 PM Subject: [eSens] tv satellite > Does anyone know if satellite tv is a problem for es sufferers?

They (the RVs) typically have too many toys that have emissions, and parking right next to one usually puts you inside their magnetic field from the transformer in the inverter/charger box. So look around first, and choose a corner that will have a higher chance of staying quiet. > > It's scary for me because I am soo reactive.

I would like for it to look 'normal' from both inside and outside. Everyone already thinks I'm nuts and lying about my symptoms, so I don't want to make it any more obvious! We have wood siding only on our house and plaster interior walls. My TV sattelite dish is right outside the kitchen window with the back facing me every time I cook on the stove, stand at the counter, or do dishes. It can't be moved because that's the only place we get a good directional signal on the ground and my husband won't allow it to be mounted on the house. I thought it was the kitchen appliances making me sick, but maybe it's the sattelite dish? THANKS! THIS GROUP AND OTHERS LIKE IT ARE A BLESSING!!! ~Deidra |
Deirdra, Your appliances could be giving you trouble also. I know for me I can't tolerate them. Especially refrigerators. But if your symtoms started when you got the satellite, it probably is the dish. Maybe the roof away from where you live most of the time would be best. Or go back to cable. Loni

> wall of the house in to the home? Perhaps someone here has suggestions for types of shielding materials that might be used in this case. Me, I prefer to use EMF protection devices for such things. For something like this, you might tape such a device on the back of the dish, or to the wires coming from the dish, or maybe just place it on the windowsill. Some things I would try: A pocket polarizer ($20), probably attached to the back of the dish: http://cutcat.com/item.php?item_id=827&page=4&category_id=44 A Quantum power conditioner (3-outlet = $29), plugged into the nearest power outlet to the dish: http://quantumproducts.com/catalog/quantum_power.html A RADAR ($29) card, probably attached to the back of the dish: http://radar3.com/products.html A Tachyonized silica disc ($25 for a 35mm size), probably attached to the wires coming from the dish: http://www.tachyon-energy-products.com/externals/silica_disks.htm Or a Springlife stainless steel pendant ($70), probably on your person: http://www.choosecra.com/store/tech/splf-silver-pendants.html And if just one of these doesn't do the job, then perhaps 2 or more used in combination might. If you're trying to do something which doesn't draw too much attraction to itself, small devices might be the way to go (assuming that some of these do the job!) Marc |

The problem may be the receiver. You might try putting it into another room and using smart home technology which is infra red and not wireless. The receiver needs to be grounded. Just putting it on some metallic cloth you can buy at Walmart and grounding the cloth can be good enough.

What I would like to know, is What is the range of these longitudinal waves, (unfortunately only measurable by it's effects), _behind_ the dish? Stewart |
