At night, if you have a florescent tube in one hand on the metal base, and
the tube lights up as you move closer to the antenna, there is too much
power for humans there. (cheap test)

om...
I am new the world of radio waves, but I am trying to find out if I
can buy a device which will tell me how strong the radio waves are
coming from a large antenna? This is assuming that I am standing
within 10 meters.

I know that a frequency counter tells me which frequencies are being
transmitted. But what tells me how strong they are? Any idea who sells
them?

Any ideas?
Thanks, Meeker
