Greetings
nubbage:
My guess is that there is not a large enough
user base of utility radios for a potentially huge
class action lawsuit that would be necessary for
the lawers of the world to reap handsome profits.
Of course nobody will admit to such conspiracies.
It just so happens that the bands where cell phones,
WLAN and micro ovens work are especially harmful
to humans.
Oh, and don't forget those deadly
fields at the other end of the EM spectrum - 50/60
Hz from overhead power lines.
Take care.
