Lookout Mountain began as a residential community before the turn of the
century. Gradually more and more broadcast equipment and power
was added in the midst of these people until Lookout Mountain became one
of the most intense and complex electromagnetic environments in a residential
community in the Country. High-powered TV, FM broadcast and radar antennas
main power radiates out at the same altitude
as many nearby mountain residents. This electromagnetic radiation
interferes
with electrical equipment, electric wheel chairs, and some automobile electronics,
like locks. (Click here for other EMR/EMF
sites of interest.)
