ᐅ Cell tower next to construction site

First, avoid using DECT, Wi-Fi, and smartphones yourself. If you can’t manage that, there’s no point in worrying about the cell towers. Everything else is like preaching water and drinking wine.

You can’t compare these devices to a fixed mast. On one hand, the exposure is temporary, and on the other hand, the signal strength decreases significantly with every meter. A mast transmits 24/7.

So, which is it? Almost true or a myth? I just wanted to say that the topic is at least controversial. After all, there are established legal limits for electromagnetic pollution that are intended to protect against health damage. But yes, based on those defined limits, you could probably install a mast every 100m (330 feet).

Don’t get too worked up about that. Otherwise, you’d have to tell 80-90% of Germans that they are being exposed to radiation (in cities, it would be 100% of residents at 500m (1,640 feet)).

Don’t worry, I’m not doing that. But it remains at least a controversially discussed topic.

If someone is really afraid of radiation, they logically avoid using mobile phones, Wi-Fi, high-voltage power lines, trains (because of high voltage).

The devices and installations you mentioned cannot be compared to the transmitting behavior of a fixed mast.

It actually increases the value. Excellent reception.

No, that’s correct. The emitted radiation is actually higher!!!

If people knew how strong the magnetic fields of an induction cooktop are... wow 😀
