** Discussion of cell phone towers:

*** First, find out which frequencies are used by the towers. Frequencies > 1 GHz or so are filtered by the Acquiris card (even with the highest "bandwidth" setting), while lower frequencies tend to be more problematic. Note that a company such as Verizon uses multiple frequencies at different towers (and sometimes in the same tower), so you need to find out the specific ones used there.

*** You can test for the electromagnetic energy using an RF detector. See some pictures [https://plus.google.com/photos/107764979785412204953/albums/5688337707417793169?banner=pwa

at this link], with a "3-axis antenna" and detector. The detector picked up the rigth frequencies for the cell towers and with the expected spatial pattern (turns out that the antennas are very directional and don't transmit any energy directly below, even a few meters down). That equipment is expensive ($15k?) but I think there are companies that can do the testing for you (that said, it may be almost as much work as bringing the AMS there, depending how hard that is...).

  • The AMS Users' Meeting in 2011 will be held at the Rosen Shingle Creek Hotel in Orlando, Florida the weekend prior to the AAAR meeting which will also be held in this hotel. This is the first time we have held our meeting at a hotel and we have chosen to do so because of the Florida location of the AAAR and for the convenience of our users. The AAAR meeting runs from October 3 through 7, 2011. The AMS Users' Meeting will be Oct 1-3 (Mon Oct. 3 does overlap with the tutorials of the AAAR Meeting).
