Topic: Rf Burn

The debate over the border wall is framed as a conflict between Trump's physical barrier and Silicon Valley's preference for an "electronic wall" consisting of high-tech surveillance. One host shares personal experiences with "RF burns" from amateur radio equipment to illustrate the reality of radio frequency hazards. The discussion concludes with a proposal for "5G crystals" or wearable LED armbands that light up when high levels of radiation are detected.

Following the discussion on cell phones, the hosts share their personal precautions regarding radio frequency (RF) exposure. Adam Curry mentions his respect for high-frequency equipment after suffering an "RF burn" from a low-wattage transmitter. John C. Dvorak admits he uses speakerphone and avoids carrying his phone in his front pocket, reflecting a general caution toward long-term radiation exposure.
