The different transmission properties of higher frequencies will necessitate a greater number
of short range base stations that also are more densely located, installed throughout our
environment. 5G base stations typically look similar to cans of soda-pop installed on lamp-
posts, and broadcast less than 300 yards/meters.
Your HF35C meter will be limited to the frequency range it has been designed to measure,
and additional radio/microwave meters may be needed in order to keep pace with changing
technologies.
Lastly, keep in mind that EMF detection meters designed for use by the general public is a
fairly new product demand in recent years due to growing public EMF awareness, and so to
make them available to the market at a low enough price point for consumers to agree to pay,
manufacturers were forced to make meters that were much less complex, less accurate, less
precise etc. In other words, consumer versions of EMF detection meters were created for a
general public that does not generally have the knowledge to understand what they are
missing and wouldn’t pay for it in any case.
By contrast, more professional and particularly industrial meters have far more range, or far
more task-appropriate range, better quality engineering, more rigorous made-to-
specification design, and more. And all those high quality-controlled features are reflected in
prices that are many thousands times higher than the consumer models available for sale.
By now you know that the allowable industry safety standards and the biologically-
based safety standards that you can see in Part IV are entirely different
guidelines; it’s as
though they speak two different languages. And, in effect, they do. The biologically based
safety standards are far lower in every instance.
Maximum allowable continuous exposure to the public varies from 1mW/cm
2
, such as in
the US and some Western Europe countries, to the most stringent standard of 0.01
mW/cm
2
, such as in Switzerland and Russia. However, the typical maximum exposure
radio/microwave from a cellular base station 50 meters away is only about 0.001mW/cm
2
.
