Does anyone have any information as to "real life" exposure limits for
adults, children and newborns at various frequencies? I've seen the
generic exposure limit ratings that the FCC publishes for dipoles but was
wondering if there were some figures that clearly state the minimum safe
distance for various frequencies and power levels.
There's a useful calculator at <http://n5xu.ae.utexas.edu/rfsafety/>
that will help you determine if you are in compliance with FCC regulations.
Having said that, I believe that the standards for RF safety at HF are
ridiculous -- FAR too restrictive. I have NEVER seen an actual report
of anyone being harmed by radiated HF RF (microwaves are a different
matter), or any studies demonstrating that HF RF -- even at 'amps
subscriber power levels' -- is in the slightest bit dangerous.
