phone is located at greater distances from the user, the exposure to RF is drastically lower because a person’s RF exposure decreases rapidly with increasing distance from the source. The so-called ‘cordless phones,’ which have a base unit connected to the telephone wiring in a house, typically operate at far lower power levels, and thus produce RF exposures far below the FCC safety limits.

4.What are the results of the research done already?

The research done thus far has produced confl icting results, and many studies have suffered from fl aws in their research methods. Animal experiments investigating the effects of

radiofrequency energy (RF) exposures characteristic of wireless phones

have yielded confl icting results that often cannot be repeated in other laboratories. A few animal studies, however, have suggested that low levels of RF could accelerate the development of cancer in laboratory animals. However, many of the studies that showed increased tumor development used animals that had been genetically engineered or treated with cancer causing chemicals so as to be predisposed

to develop cancer in the absence of RF exposure. Other studies exposed the animals to RF for up to

22 hours per day. These conditions are not similar to the conditions under
