Hi There,

It occured to me the other day that I have been spending many hours
sat next to my nanoBTS in a lab environment and have never given
thought about the amount of power that the device is outputting.
Looking through the bsc_hack config settings I can see the ms max
power setting, at present I have this setting set to 15. I am also not
sure at which levels to set my nominal power and max_power_red settings.

What are everyone's opinions on a safe power setting at which to set
the nanoBTS? Is 15 to high or low? What do other people have there
power settings set too? Does anyone have any reading material on the
wider health implications of using such a device as the nanoBTS in
close proximity to a person for long periods of time?

Many thanks for the help, advice and suggestions.

Matthew
