The paper absrtract says-

Abstract
Monolayer cultures of human neuroblastoma cells were exposed to
915-MHz radiation, with or without sinusoidal amplitude modulation
(80%) at 16 Hz, at specific absorption rates (SAR) for the culture
medium and cells of 0.00, 0.01, 0.05, 0.075, 0.1, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.5,
2, or 5 mW/g. A significant increase in the efflux of calcium ions
(45Ca2+) as compared to unexposed control cultures occurred at two SAR
values: 0.05 and 1 mW/g. Increased efflux at 0.05 mW/g was dependent
on the presence of amplitude modulation at 16 Hz but at the higher
value it was not. These results indicate that human neuroblastoma
cells are sensitive to extremely low levels of microwave radiation at
certain narrow ranges of SAR.

There's a real big difference between illuminating a single layer of
cells in a cultute & lighting up a brain's worth of cells in some
numbskull's er, um... skull.

Ampitude modulation? What's the mechanisum operating to de-modulate
the signal so it can affect the calcium channels? If there ain't no
demodulation happenig all you're getting is heating effect.

I note a distinct lack of corroborating followup studies over the last
28 years.




i.e.- Not Much.

How so?
All the necessary parts have been on the shelf for decades.
* Amplitude - modulatable Microwave oscillator up to ~10 GHz at <1W
* 16 Hz Audio oscillator
* Small parabolic antenna with pitch and yaw servo system
* Various waveguide bits

You don't need to illuminate the entire 3 lbs. at all.

If it were heat alone, then the effect should be more pronounced at
higher power levels. Efflux diminishes, instead.
I don't know *why* swamping the brain with a disingenuous EEG waveform
causes it to disregard the lower power signals coming
from the cells it should be listening to. It seems reasonable that
it would behave in that fashion, given the science.

Thanks, Howard.

"That big microwave dish that swung round and focused on me".

None.
It's cheaper to hand over a few hundred, or thousand, dollars than get
involved in the cheapest lawsuit.

In other words, if you pulse-modulate a microwave oven, and pull the
magnetron out and lay it on your bench, will it knock you unconscious
when turned on? (Or distort your thinking, mimic psychoactive drug
effects, etc.?) If it doesn't work, just place your brain closer.

Do like this guy below. I love how the RF is overloading the audio in
his camcorder.

At the proper modulation frequency and carrier amplitude,
one would probably lose all senses. One might move an
object, say a wallet from one pocket to another without
being aware of it. If the carrier were turned off soon
enough, one would remain standing but would be quite
disoriented and confused, as if waking from sleep.

It would take a couple minutes before one would be
completely conscious. Not a painful experience, but
quite unpleasant.
