Isn't the size and intensity of the EMFdirectly related to the voltage and
frequency of the source? IE a 30KV from a ballast has "more" than 120 V
from an incandescent lightbulb?
that's why you can put a flurescent bulb under a high voltage line and have
it light up? what's the relation to the amperage passing thru?
what kind of voltage is the high voltage transmission network at?
Thanks, Karl
PS: I was building a strabale house in the country duing the post 9-11
period, weren't listening to the radio, didn't go to town for a day or 2
afterword, wondered a little bit about the lack of contrails (and indeed all
clouds). there were usually lots as we were due west of O'hare.
