Transcript excerpt from a Ben Greenfield video discussing concerns about in-home cell boosters (e.g., a Verizon booster) and their impact on the home EMF environment; the speaker introduces testing to measure effects and seeks expert input on whether boosters pose a significant problem and possible mitigations.
I'm just curious how big of a problem these cell boosters are, and if they are a big problem, what we can do about it. So while we're on the subject of towers, I have a question for you. We live in an area, as I know some listeners probably do, where there's very poor cell phone reception. After moving in, I realized that this was an issue because I can't have my phone attached to an ethernet cable everywhere. Like, let's say I'm wandering around the living room talking to somebody, walking paces around the couch, which I sometimes do. So I needed better cell phone coverage. So I got a Verizon cell booster. And when I installed it, I thought, next time Brian's up, we should actually test this to see what a cell booster does. Yeah, so we should test that. But what I'm wondering what Brian's gonna be able to test is, okay, what's this do to the EMF environment? I'm just curious how big of a problem these cell boosters are, and if they are a big problem, what we can do about it. So let's see what Brian has to say. So this is the cell booster. I was explaining to people that, you know, cell phone company will send these to you if you're getting low bars. It gives me now, like, four bars of coverage. But I'm curious what it does and if it's high. If there's anything we can do, it's maxing out this method.
