What about those military things that they use to disperse crowds? Where it makes you feel like your skin is cooking, but it's actually not. I feel like that uses high power and high frequency radio waves to accomplish that.
This? it says that uses 95ghz which seems to be another frequency that is absorbed well. It’s not just because it’s cb high frequency, there’s specific frequencies that resonate with different things. Also it is definitely cooking your skin and you would be burned if you were hit long enough
Won't that increase probability of skin cancer?
Edit: yes:
Those are 95 GHz but very high power and focused as well.
It's not that high frequency can't hurt you, what I'm trying to say is for a given power level, 30-300 MHz is the most risky to humans. That's why the FCC regulates this band the most stringently.
Fair enough, there's some really golden information in this thread.
