I made a few recordings years ago with the Cornet and uploaded here:
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCAm_SFVMXIIHaGnqLV-axtFgrjic7ozGI am a total noob when it comes to EMF meters, so I need to ask a few questions... I have the ED88T, the 2015 Acoustimeter and the UHS2 (for magnetic fields only).
- If I hold any of these meters close to the source of the EMF then the numbers read by them are useless? if that's the case then how far should we point any of these meters for accurate readings?
- Why the Cornet and Acoustimeter are useless for measuring 5 Ghz wi-fi signals? I did this test: disabled the 2.4 Ghz signal from my router and only let 5 Ghz with the lowest transmit power possible (2.4 GHz when turned on it's the same). I could only make these EMF meters to go up when I put them right in the front of the router, say, at no more than 6 ft / 2 meters or less. Even so the increase was insignificant.
When I did the same test with 2.4 Ghz (and 5 GHz disabled) the EMF levels increased significantly even at higher distances. It is well known 2.4 GHz can permeate your house far more than 5 Ghz, 2.4 is always stronger, so a difference would be expected.
But what is not normal is this (nevermind about the numbers):
2.4 GHz enabled:
- At 15-20 ft either AM and Cornet measure, say, 2 V/M (let's assume they register this)
5 GHz enabled:
- At 15-20 barely reaches 0.5 V/M. It's like the signal isn't even there.
I have no idea if this has been fixed over the years or how this SAFE AND SOUND PRO would measure. This needs some clarification because even the GIGAHERTZ SOLUTIONS meters, which are more expensive and aimed for professionals, don't have any EMF meter that can cover so much.
They sell the HFW35C RF Meter which covers the frequency range of 2.4 GHz to 6 GHz.
The HF35C range is 800 MHz to 2.7 GHz.
Acoustimeter = 200 MHz - 8 GHz
Cornet = 100 MHz - 8 GHz
How is this possible?
