And to think I use to fly 300 feet over the Voice of America
transmitters. WOW!!! That was lots of zots!
(Don't forget that signal strength falls off as the inverse square of
the distance.)

Your typical handheld cellphone is about 1/2 watt an inch from your brain.
just imagine what 50,000 watts is doing to you and you family...
Do the math and figure out what signal strength there is where you
stand, plus low frequencies like the AM band are not what people are
worrying about.
