has there been a study of all these waves about my head?

I put a egg in a microwave with neat results.

Hingham, MA		 Well if using this section of the spectrum didn't cause problems when there were TV channels there...

I'd be much more concerned about that wireless router sitting close to you than the frequencies leased in the recent spectrum auction. After all, 2.4 GHz is the frequency the microwave uses to cook your egg

you're more likely to die from skin cancer caused by UV rays from the sun than from TV rays

yes, rf is non-ionizing and does not harm human cells. at high power it causes water molecules to vibrate causing friction heat, but does not damage dna whatsoever. (this is just in case you weren't kidding haha)

For conventional home microwaves, yes. Some very large industrial microwave ovens use a much lower ~900 Mhz range.

Given the relative power output, I think more about the cell phone hanging on my hip.

Alexandria, VA		 Not so worried about the mobile phone hanging on my hip since I'm good with the kids that I have, but holding it next to my head is a different story.....
