Hmmm, inner ear problems? Aren't VLF radio waves supposed to be very very weak energy-wise? Why would your body pick those.

- lutorm 12y agoNo, the transmitters are extremely powerful. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VLF_Transmitter_Cutler http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VLF_Transmitter_Cutler says it was at some point the world's most powerful radio transmitter at 1.8MW. Actual field strength will of course depend in a complicated way on distance from the site and the propagation, but you'd think that if these sites were the source, there should be a strong concentration of cases around the transmitters.
- Torgo 12y agoPresumably you could delocalize it with something like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Frequency_Active_Auroral_Research_Program https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Frequency_Active_Auroral_... I realize that this is entering conspiracy theory territory, but generating VLF from a distance is one of the things this thing does.
- lutorm 12y agoAh, interesting. I hadn't heard about that before.
