Re: I wonder...
said by treetop1000  :Most people who have those symptoms (sharp headaches and difficulty breathing, blurry vision) usually are having one H*** of a hangover. Been there, done that. Blaming it on Wimax is just so lame. And the arrhythmia, well, that comes from way too much COFFEE, while trying to get seriously undrunk. I told you Starbucks was bad for you.... Blame ur poor productivity and hang over on the new wireless base station. I gotta try it sometime. Im wondering how the cellphone in their pocket and ubiquitous GSM coverage from multiple providers doesnt cause it, but wimax does. | |

The same reason that your cordless doesn't interfere with your television. It's called frequency and transmitter power. If you modulate the right frequency, you can expose yourself to the right kind of "radiation" to cause health problems. Doubt it all you'd like, but there is a reason these frequencies are licensed, and not just open to anyone who wants them. You have to understand that radio waves ARE radiation, but on different frenquencies/wavelengths. Most don't cause issues with us because they are found naturally, but this WiMax channel being used over there obvoiusly is on a bad channel. I don't claim to know it all though, so flame on, but I honestly believe the health concerns are valid for the technology. I don't like holding a cellphone or cordless next to my head, but I also realize that all my neighbors have one, so I can't avoid it.

| I doubt wimax is being used on anything above 3 ghz, its betweem 500-2500mhz probably, basically same as wifi, 2.4 ghz devices, or as UHF TV or PCS or cellular cellphones. Wimax shouldnt be more 2x a cellphone tower in transmit power, 30 miles vs .5-2 for city and 5-60 (AMPS/analog) miles for rural. I just dont see the difference other than 2x more transmit power. | |
