Zitat:
William Westlake:
„I was a Gun Firecontrolman in the US Navy and worked on powerful radar systems as part of the fire-control system.

When I was in the US Navy in the 1980s a shipmate of mine was working on a low power radar, in about the same freq. range as a microwave oven. He thought it was safe, it was only a 100-watt system. He disabled a safety so he could take a measurement. He felt his arm get warn and turned it off. A week later he was in surgery, he lost his arm, the radar cooked his bones, it had to be removed. Don’t play with such devices, they are deadly.“
