Together we are strong!
Posted by Wendy on 9/12/2009, 10:31 pm, in reply to "Re: radio towers"
You could do a unique and great service to tenants by having a survey. Maybe a few small ads in Now magazine and some community newspapers or Hi Rise magazine.
The ad could be something like, do you have cell phone microwave towers on top of your apartment building? Are you in a top floor under one of these antennas? Have you or anyone in your apartment ever had cancer, migrane headaches, or other problems particularly children. Do you know anyone in this situation? Let us know. We are doing research on tenants' experiences with any adverse medical problems for those living close to rooftop cell phone transmitter antennas.
With the information you get you can confirm if this is a problem. If it is then its an issue of great importance no one else is looking into.
