Presents personal handheld RF measurements and contrasts peak readings with live readings, explicitly mak…

I am submitting as an individual with several years of hands-on radiofrequency field-measurement experience in Flushing, Queens, New York City. I respond to Questions 2, 7, and 8. Q2 — Perspective: I am a citizen measurer, not a clinician, researcher, or industry professional. Everything below comes from my own field measurements with a handheld GQ EMF-390 multi-field meter (manufacturer-stated RF range 10 MHz–10 GHz, three-axis sensor, peak-hold on), not from peer-reviewed research. I make no claims about health effects; my contribution is measurement methodology and real-world observation. Q7 — How real-world exposure is measured in practice: I measure with a handheld GQ EMF-390 multi-field meter (manufacturer-stated RF range 10 MHz–10 GHz, three-axis sensor), peak-hold on. Across several evening sessions at home in Flushing, live RF power-density readings sat between 2.3 and 19 mW/m², while the meter's peak-hold repeatedly captured short electric-field spikes far above the live number — 77, 100, 139 and 397 V/m, and 1002 V/m in one session; a daytime outdoor session captured 725 V/m. The device's spectrum view labeled the dominant activity "WiFi/Phone," but I was unable to verify the specific source of the repeated peak spikes — their origin is unidentified. Two practical observations: (1) the peak number and the live number on the same meter, seconds apart, can differ by orders of magnitude, and compliance-style time-averaged measurements report only the latter; (2) there is no public dataset capturing what a person experiences at home or at a bus stop with a phone in hand, versus what a compliance measurement at a fixed distance, height, and averaging time reports. Q8 — How exposure could be measured better: (a) HHS should publish a standardized, low-cost field-measurement protocol — instrument class, detector, resolution bandwidth, sweep settings, and averaging time — so that citizen measurements are comparable across people and places; (b) both peak and time-averaged values should be reported and disclosed side by side, since the public only ever sees one number; (c) HHS should maintain a public repository for citizen-collected measurement data with location and timestamp, so real-world exposure maps can be built from thousands of independent readings instead of relying solely on carrier compliance filings. Q18 — One clear request: recognize citizen-measured RF exposure data as a complement to compliance data, not a replacement. The people who live under the antennas are willing to do the measuring; what is missing is a standard that makes their measurements count. Sources: my own field measurements as described above.
