The tower is about 50 meter height on top of the of a 3 stories building roof and my office building just below the tower on the same level, 20 meter away from the tower. When I was a lad in Electronics School They tied my ass to a students stool. A radar was operating just 20 feet away; And with each turn it pointed our way. We thought it was just to test the running gear. Certainly we never considered it with fear; But when the TV in the corner sizzled with each pass, We counted revolutions to the end of class. At the same time, the surrounding is my working area ( Jetty Terminal for ships loading and unloading activities ). In light of the fear, here's a piece of impudence: I can say that I'll be around that area 12 hours a day for another 20 years. My question: Is it safe to work in that area???? No, the industrial sound level will undoubtedly lead to hearing issues later in life (if you survive the radiation). 73's Richard Clark, KB7QHC Apologies to Gilbert and Sullivan and "The Monarch of the Sea" |
