I don't doubt that high levels of RF can be dangerous. The first two chief
engineers I worked with both died of cancer in their 50s.

Maybe they got cancer from some other cause (both smoked), but I still feel
like I'm inside a microwave oven anytime I'm around an AM transmitter site.

These were folks who engaged in common engineering practices like soaking
a rag in carbon tetrachloride to clean PCB oil from failed capacitors out
of transmitter chassis, right? God knows we all did that sort of thing...
