This seems to have been posted to a couple of discussion groups two weeks ago: http://groups.google.com/group/sci.environment/browse_thread/thread/0734 2886209462dc http://www.groupsrv.com/science/about454864.html It reads like something written by an individual with an axe to grind (unhappy neighbor) than as part of an organization's (non-organization's?) manifesto. "Write your Congressman" doesn't seem to be part of ELF's normal strategy. Dave K1ZZ -----Original Message----- From: David A.

What characteristic is shared by an electric blanket, a power line, and a broadcast tower? All three emit electromagnetic radiation. These invisible electromagnetic fields are known as EMFs. They are generated by currents running through electric wires. Since they are not powerful and destructive like nuclear or X-ray radiation, they were once thought to be harmless. However, studies have suggested that people exposed to them chronically run a higher risk of certain health problems, including miscarriages, learning disabilities, and cancer. Did you know that Ham Radio Operators run 1500 watts of power in your neighborhood exposing your family to dangerous radiation? Is there a ham radio operator in your neighborhood? You can find out easily by a large antenna in your neighbor yards and doing a search for hams by zip code at http://www.qrz.com/db/ The reason you need to search for hams in your neighborhood is because they can run their 1500 watt transmitters with a small wire dipole and vertical antennas hidden in trees and flag poles. Unlike CB radio operators who are limited to a very low 4 watt transmitters in your neighborhood hams can do more damage to your children with there 1500 watt transmitters. How much power does your local AM radio station run? On average they only run 1000 watts, but the transmitting antennas are usually in remote unpopulated areas. Ham radio operators run there high powered transmitters right in your neighborhood. How to put a stop to ham radio operators from polluting your neighborhood: 1. Write your congressman about protecting your children from harmful EMF. 2. Demand that the FCC certify every ham radio operator in your area comply with RF exposure regulations by writing the FCC. http://www.fcc.gov/eb/AmaCmpl.html 3. Contact your local city council and mayor to lobby to change Federal law regarding using high powered transmitters in your neighborhood. 4. If you live in a neighborhood with a covenant then contact the HOA and demand that it be changed to exclude licensed ham radio operators from living in the neighborhood, it is not enough to ban large antennas since the ham radio operator will put up a small wire antenna or an antenna in their attic to transmit up to 1500 watts of power. 5. If you find out a ham is in your neighborhood let your neighbors know so they can contact your city council and congress representative to change the law to mandate a lower power usage of ham radio around your family. 6. Ham radio operators lower your property values with there large antennas and the increasing knowledge that high power transmitters effect every family in the neighborhood with harmful EMF radiation. http://earth-liberation-front.org/ ______________________________________________________________ ADXA mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/adxa Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:ADXA@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
