[QUOTE="wires, post: 111941"] A hand-held radio should have no problem with RF exposure. After all, you hold it up to your mouth to talk on it. The mag mount will work as a base antenna. If you have 2 metal file cabinets side-by-side, put the mag mount in the middle and you should be good to go. Keep the antenna away from computers as it will tend to distort the display. If you don't have any metal filing cabinets, a piece of metal about that size will work. It doesn't have to be heavy or thick. [/QUOTE]
