I just walkd in between high powered radio wave antennas...

As much as he keeps going on about it, I'm tempted to fvck with him again.

Something like, "Dude! 200 Watts is the same power as a small Microwave Oven! Your insides are being cooked! RUN AWAY!"

🙁
 
25W? You're fine. That's a fraction of the power of your average radio station. Ever driven by one of those?
 
They don't have the yellow and black tape going around everything if they were so quick to get you out of the line of the antenna's. But after reading about everything posted here, your cell phone is a bit less than what just happened to you.

Oh wait. Those things have 35 kW RF transmitters in them... 🙂

Exactly!! Ever had an MRI? Go sit in a 3T, they pump quite a bit of RF and the FDA thinks they are fine. 🙂

That's a 5.8 GHZ device for extending T-1 over wireless I believe. Power Consumption
25W max (RT and RTCB).

As I said chill out your last X-Ray did more damage to you than walking between the antenna.

But now I'm not just walking through the antenna ... its going through me as we speak 😛 The jerks have them setup across the building

25W ... is that a lot?

And with the x-ray, they give you those blanket things...

Does the blanket cover your head, the most important part of your body?

ROFL and take pics, lots and lots of pics...post them as well. God if i was your coworkers i wouldn't be able to stop laughing
 
No nothing really happens to you. Microwave radiation is non-ionizing and won't give you cancer.
The only thing it'll do is warm you up a bit. But 25W at 30ft is probably neglible anyways.
 
Since it was radio waves at a low power no biggie. Doubt it would even make you sterile for a bit. Now if it was long range microwave antenne...... yeah then you little guys will be cooked!
 
Ever sit in your car and turn on that thingy that plays music? It's called a "radio". It receives signals from 10, 20, even 50 miles away! Also, it's recieving signals from probably *50* different stations at once!

Has it killed you yet?

How about power lines? What do you think carries more electricty, the power lines hanging over your house and running through your walls, or some antenna at work?
