Posted By John Murgatroyd There is no evidence at all of any harm from either handsets or base stations, or risk of any harm. http://www.nrpb.org/pres...bile_telephony/index.htm At the height that most LARGER base stations are, the radiation received by a persons body is MANY times lower than received from a handset. Most SMALLER base stations radiate at a power only slightly higher than a handset. Base stations come in a range of guises...the one in my village looks JUST like a telephone pole....so much so that nobody except me has noticed it. The giveaway is the green box at the bottom with ORANGE PCS written on it. As I said....little risk, unless you're looking to get your name in the 'papers that is...in which case you could doubtless make so much noise that people will listen to you.

Posted By Sylvia Tyler I have recently been involved in the compilation of a safe working procedure involving Radio Frequency for clients who erect and maintain mobile masts etc, I will e-mail under separate cover it may give you the information you are looking for. Sylvia

Posted By Shaun Ingram Vincent, We had a similar situation at one of our sites ,I contacted all of the service providers and had the best response from Orange. They sent out a representative who came and spoke to all the staff who raised concerns. Some still were sceptical and Orange agreed to provide an independent survey of the mast and its effect on the premises. They were very quick in doing so and the people were asked the preferred areas for taking readings. As it turned out they were more at risk standing under the showroom lights ! Hope this helps if you need any info then drop me an e-mail. Cheers Shaun
