3g streaming radiation

    Hi

    I stream radio over 3g to my iphone a lot. I imagine this is for the most part just receiving a stream of data with very little packets of data returning. Therefore does this mean there is little chance of em radiation from the phone as it is mostly just in receiving mode?

    Thanks

    No, not really, you have to send to recieve and visa-versa. If you're about it don't worry unless you've been doing this since you were 3 years old or something.scared

    Not really. Any network has to establish a set up a link to send/receive using protocols. So even though it is mainly receiving, it is also sending data, such as acknowledgements that it actually received the data.
