Antennas and the FCC
A few years ago there was a flurry of activity regarding measurement
of radiation in the immediate area around the antenna/station. As I recall, anything under 100 watts was exempt from the requirements. Can someone clarify the situation? Thanks, jimbo |

Thanks, jimbo Hey Jimbo, Here's a link: http://www2.arrl.org/news/rfsafety/exposure_regs.html ARRLWeb: The FCC's New RF-Exposure Regulations The criteria include both power and frequency, so powers below 100 watts at VHF and UHF may be subject to the regulation.

They have links there to the requirements for power measurement that you are looking for. Dave WD9BDZ |

It's easy and more than likely you will pass muster. I used this site for my evaluation: http://n5xu.ae.utexas.edu/ I also made copies of my antenna specs and attached them to the report, then filed. -- Email: |

I went from there to the FCC's web site and downloaded Bulletin 65 and its supplements, including the guide for local government. I followed another link and found a BASIC program called rfsafety.bas at http://www2.arrl.org/news/rfsafety/rfsafety.bas by Wayne Overbeck, N6NB. (In the Ham Radio supplement (B) to Bulletin 65, I found a reference to the program written by Prof. Wayne Overbeck.) Except for the first line of the program, it runs in Chipmunk BASIC on the Macintosh. It may also run in Microsoft QBASIC, but I didn't try it. I went ahead and ran all combinations I use, both mobile and at home. Apparently you can absorb a little too much RF by standing next to a mobile, unless you consider the duty cycle! 73, Fred, K4DII |
