Navy radars are known to hurt sailors and definitely kill birds.
But, of course, these are high power transmitters.

So, you've never cooked meat with a kitchen microwave? :)

Yup.
Microwave ovens operate around 2.45 GHz where water molecules have strong absorption. Of course, microwave ovens are closed metal boxes with standing waves - when working properly, they don't leak radiation. And they often have 1200W of power. An X-band Radar: FCC.gov: Transmit Power Lots of power for short periods of time, but not so much on average. (Big AM radio stations are typically 50,000 watts (some used to be 500,000 watts, IIRC).) In contrast, a cell phone towers typically radiate 5-10 watts, and 1/r^2 is always your friend. ;-) Things are different at high power - even intense visible light is bad at high enough intensity. And, naturally, there's been lots of research on using high intensity light for countermeasures... Interesting stuff! Cheers, Scott. |

Yeah it's a different value equation depending if they have the cell towers and the bandwidth versus

Well, it reduces how strong a signal your phone has to send out.

It doesn't have to be ionizing radiation to trigger cellular changes.
