Nice try Ava. While I agree that EMFs and dirty electricity from smart meters are a huge problem, there is no scientific evidence to back up the claims of ANY sort of protection from “orgonite”, “amazonite” (hilarious!!!), or any of the products you’re trying to sell.

Shame on you.

You are correct. The meters do not need to transmit as often as they do. Since the microwave signals are powered by the customer’s power usage, utilities have a very good (dishonest) reason for making them transmit as often as they can.

According to this document:

http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Elster+REX2+Smart+Meter+Teardown/5710/1

“If a specific household has concerns about their meter being used as a repeater, they can contact their utility company to request that their Elster meter transmits power readings just once a day.”

Yet, if a Zigbee-enabled Elster meter has been installed that transmits eight fruitless pulses per minute “searching” for in home devices wishes to avoid the extra 2.4 Ghz RFR pulses, there is currently NO solution available.

“Elster is working on a firmware update to be released by the end of June 2013 that would shut off the HAN radio emissions until such time that the devices are ready to be commissioned to pair with IHDs.”

THIS IS AN AGENDA 21 WEAPON! TOO MANY PEOPLE ON EARTH! WAKE UP PEOPLE!

Radar technicians contracted cancer from years of working on live radar equipment, as had U.S. embassy employees who become ill when Soviet agents targeted the U.S. embassy in Moscow with microwave energy.

So the power industry arguments that the radiation is “safe” is demonstrably false, and there is abundant research to show that microwave energy can be extremely dangerous at moderate power levels. It’s not merely the heating effect that damages DNA but a combination of factors that make low power microwave energy a health hazard. Microwave radiation damage at any power level is cumulative so that long term exposure should be avoided. Low level microwave energy is a “slow-kill” weapon. It will trigger cancers in some people but not others. As the power level increases, more people become ill more quickly. There is probably no “safe” level of microwave energy for life-long exposure.

But I am not worried about such stuff, I have a HAMM radio, that put’s out far more power then any “smart meter” ever could with no ill effects what so ever. People think the word radiation is equal to radioactive, not even close to the truth. Sun light, in fact ALL light no matter what wae length is a form of electro-magnetic “radiation” throw out your microwave oven while your at it, get rid of your wireless phone and cell phone, your “frying” your brain.

Hey Redi KW, there’s no problem with transmitting in the ISM bands. That’s why they are UNLICENSED! You just need to stay within the transmission limit specified by the FCC. Cell (mobile) phones are in the licensed bands, so you wouldn’t be interfering with them. Get your facts straight before you spout off.
So could potentially jam the 900MHz signals from the smart meters while still being FCC compliant. If you check the FCCID code and how the unit was passed, it will clearly state that the unlicensed device must be able to accept interference that may cause it not to function properly. The regulations for the licensed bands are different.

Larry,
if someone did what you said (and got snitched on and busted for it), the FCC would come down on them like a ton of bricks, and make an example out of them.
The FCC would send vans with antennas into your area sweeping for errant signals for a few months or more. You would freak out.
And keep in mind, the gas meters use 450MHz UHF, and so do business radios and public safety agencies. And the SmartMeters use 900MHz UHF, and so do public safety agencies and mobile phones. You wouldn’t want to be responsible for interfering with an emergency call to the fire department reporting another SmartMeter fire would you ? Your house might also burn down.
Estupido !
