does anyone know the pattern they emit? edit: found it, but sadly without scale. No Idea how dangerous the lobes would be: http://www.emfguru.co.uk/kumar/kumar

  So am I— in a building of thousands. We have two over top of us, and another two on the building next door. (according to the Canadian map another commentor posted)

  "does anyone know the pattern they emit?" Naturally you can assume the vertical cross section of the radiation pattern will focused below the horizon toward cell phone users. Gain is typically on the order of 8-10 DBi. Power is usually in the low 10's of watts. Line-of-sight to the main lobe of a 30W transmitter with 10 DBi of gain at 100 meters you see an e-field of 0.95 V/m. Anything between you an that tower will drop the e-field by orders of magnitude. 52-6F-62 writes: "We have two over top of us, and another two on the building next door." The towers above you are radiating away from you. You "see" radiation from the building next door. At least that's the most likely arrangement.

    I guess I'm in a side-lobe (~12m down, ~12m to the side), but hopefully the roof is thick enough to dampen a lot (it's flat, so there is a bunch of steel and concrete there).
