I'll have to watch out for one to see if I still think so in person.

I chuckle every time I see one. Everyone knows they are cell towers and most of them don't look very realistic. Wonder how much, if any, it adds to the cost of the tower (and thus to the cell phone bill).Donna Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06161069942110860372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8380348623382527060.post-30520694903800725102014-03-05T16:11:30.528-07:002014-03-05T16:11:30.528-07:00If I may comment as a person whose career was in p...If I may comment as a person whose career was in public safety communication for a PD. We want our cell phones to just work. These do a credible job and allow closer in towers throughout urban areas. For myself I feel they need to be high above both to cover a wider area and to dissipate the RF signal. By the way, there are no ill effects from the RF unless you are maybe 3 feet from the source. These antennas are designed to send the signal out horizontally so there in no dangerous RF below the antenna. No worries.jonthebruhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03269783679431506513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8380348623382527060.post-75543336145880155512014-03-05T15:40:09.288-07:002014-03-05T15:40:09.288-07:00Those are great!!
