[TriLUG] OFF-TOPIC - microwave radiation

[David Both]

Not sure where else to get opinions on this. It is WAY off topic.


Just today (September 09, 2014) I was using my Kindle HDX to browse through my 
FaceBook account when I got the message on screen that I could post messages 
while offline. I checked the signal strength icon and it was gone. My wife had 
just started the microwave to heat the broccoli. As soon as the microwave 
stopped, my wireless signal returned.

In this case the microwave oven leaks enough radiation to jam the wireless 
signal even though I was about 15 feet from the microwave when this occurred. 
You should find that scary.

This is a Panasonic Model NN-SD787/797.

Does anyone have an RF/Microwave Signal strength meter I could use to check the 
leakage?

Perhaps this would explain my continuing frequent brain farts. ;-) Where is the 
aluminum foil?
