What is the correlation between radio waves and cancer?

Some will probably be skeptical, but I've actually felt the effects
of RF when operating on the HF bands. I forgot what band it was, but
it was one of the lower ones, "80 or 40", and I was working CW from
my mobile. "parked"
It took a QSO or two before I realized the RF was effecting me.

I believe you. I have felt the effects of using a cell phone for an
extended time. A warmth sensation. And not the batteries.

What I see as the problem with the whole situation is that there is a
whole spectrum of effects that are tested for. Most are found to be
lacking in evidence. The likelihood of say cell phones as a cause of
cancer is quite low.

In addition, a lot of people who think that RF exposure is terribly bad
are naught but kooks.

But those are not reasons to dismiss any and all effects as nonexistent.

I personally suspect that excessive near field RF exposure at cell phone
frequencies makes people stupid. I used to think it was temporary, but
there has to be a reason for driving while text messaging.
