People who must conduct extended conversations in their cars every day could
switch to a type of mobile phone that places more distance between their bodies and
the source of the RF, since the exposure level drops off dramatically with distance.
For example, they could switch to:
•
a mobile phone in which the antenna is located outside the vehicle,
•
a hand-held phone with a built-in antenna connected to a different antenna
mounted on the outside of the car or built into a separate package, or
•
a headset with a remote antenna to a mobile phone carried at the waist.
Again, the scientific data
do not
demonstrate that mobile phones are harmful. But if
people are concerned about the radiofrequency energy from these products, taking
the simple precautions outlined above can reduce any possible risk.
Where can I find additional information?
