Guest guest Posted February 18, 2004 Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 Hello Nikolaj, no, chicken wire is not good enough, the meshes are too wide. The least is the socalled *voliere wire*, here the wire is 0.8 mm thick, and the openings are 12 x 12 mm. Normally, the rescue blankets shield ca 40 dB. With your HF meter from ia, you cannot measure dB. You read dBm. That is something different. And 15 dBm difference is quite a lot, depending from the number ! As an example, if you go from - 20 dBm to -30 dBm, that means from 1200 uW/m2 to 120 uW/m2, that is a hell of a lot reduction. If you go from -43 to -53dBm, you got from 6.1 uW/m2 to 0.61 uW/m2 If you go from -51 dBm to -60 dBm, you got from 0.96 uW/m2 to 0.12 uW/m2 Otherwise, in a livingroom the max is -30 dBm (= 120 uW/m2 = 0.21 V/m) and in a bedroom -51 dBm (= 0.96 uW/m2 = 0.019 V/m) is preferable.

I consider shielding my home, at least the bedroom to decrease present RF levels from nearby mobile base stations etc at 5-10 microW/m2. However, I am aware shielding also decreases the beneficial influence from the natural EMF signals. Isn't that a problem when shielding? Can it be prevented - e.g. by shielding only some parts of a bedroom (windows, ceilings and may be walls and exclude shielding the floor)?

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2004 Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 Hi , How come the chicken wire don't work, as long as the mesh size is smaller than a half wavelength?

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2004 Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 Hello Nikolaj, Chicken wire does something, but largely not enough. I estimate something like 3-5 dB. Those HF waves are very naughty. They just fly through. The hole smust be as small as possible. The best is these fly-wire, but in front of a window, you won't see anything. I tried several materials, and in the beginning, I was satisfied with this birds-wire of 12x12 mm opening. But since they put extra gsm senders on top of the existing masts, (we face some five masts) the radiation has been higher, and I was forced to place other material in front of this wire. You may look at ISPO Gewebe, or Armierungsgewebe z.B. Glasseidengewebe G-ES at Biologa or Priggen. Or the Diamant Gewebe from Biloga/Priggen. Of course in front of windows, a transparaent film, like RDF is the best, but it costs. Therefore my advice for the thermo blanket in the bedroom. It is the cheapest thing available.
