You get bad decisions and bad data.\nAny and all questions and concerns about currently in use RF technology is already settled science. The effects of every part of the electromagnetic spectrum from DC to daylight Has been researched, theorized, and tested for decades. This has been done by actual scientists in physics, medicine, and engineering. No input from the uneducated masses is valid or needed.\nI am far more educated and experienced than an average citizen in RF. I have worked in/with RF for decades both professionally and as a licensed amateur radio operator holding an Amateur Extra Class license. In 50 years of near field exposure, always following the FCC exposure limit guidelines, I have never had a single issue of any kind. This includes work with HF, VHF, UHF, and into Gigahertz applications. \nI have taught Amateur Radio theory to hundreds of students and those interactions demonstrated to me how little understanding of electrical and RF theory is held by otherwise well-educated people. \nIt is my sincere belief that one purpose or result of this survey, will be to justify the termination of the entire Amateur Radio service and spectrum in the United States so that it may be monetized and licensed to commercial uses. This is what this administration is attempting to do with all public resources.\nLet the law suits begin!\n","attachments":[],"attachment_inventory":true,"withheld":false,"source":"https://www.regulations.gov/comment/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-4270","tags":["policy-standards","research-evidence"],"source_hash":"0748f395f431cc07a370e9533a246667875d85c8c394babecd1d5a4539fb00aa","slug":"policy-standards-comment-4270","classification":{"id":"HHS-OASH-2026-0397-4270","body_sha256":"cb8d18170d30f75e52a4833354ded029dc960da35286d1a955d79728d8e8a97e","status":"ai_reviewed","primary_topic":"standards","topics":[{"id":"standards","evidence":"of near field exposure, always following the FCC exposure limit guidelines, I have never had a single issue of any kind.
