Since the 1970s occupational exposure to microwaves has been linked to the adverse health effects shown in the table on the right.

These effects were discovered before the general public became exposed to microwaves as a result of the phenomenal increase in mobile phone masts, base stations, cordless phones and WiFi.

Despite reassurances from the mobile phone system operators and some government officials that this radiation is safe, local communities are reporting the same health effects arising wherever a mast springs up. Planning regulations seem to be unable to stop the spread of masts.

If you suspect that you, or members of your family, may be experiencing health problems as a result of mast exposure, you can protect them from microwaves coming into your home, with the material you can see in the picture.

The same new technology is also being used in digital cordless (DECT) phones. Having one of these in your house is like having your own mast beaming out microwaves 24 hours a day. Even if you do not have one, your neighbour might, and as microwaves travel through walls, you could be exposed to quite high levels of radiation.

If your neighbour has WiFi, you may be exposed to RF from the router, which is often placed in the window near the phone socket. BT claim the signal extends 'line of sight' over 100 metres, it will be certainly up to 50 metres.
