[Antennas] RF Exposure.. Hoooey....or otherwise

Wayne,
The most interesting research that I have read about this nonsense is
that the intense low-frequency barrage from those high-power audio
amplifiers BREAKS THE WELDS in the frame of the vehicle over time!
I'm EAGERLY awaiting the day that I can watch some jerk, blithly driving
down the highway, with his audio amplifier booming away .. and his car
falls apart!
