Homeowners worry about possible health effects
If you drive around the Cincinnati area you may have noticed mysterious cylinder-type cell phone towers, that look nothing like any cell tower most of us have seen.
Now, a growing number of Tri-Staters are getting worried about these towers, and the 5G signals they believe they will soon be sending out, as part of the nationwide rollout of faster 5G cell service.
Michelle Krinsky is a nurse who was out walking near her Cleves home earlier this summer, when she looked up and said, "What's that? You can see it's this ugly menace sitting there," she said.
Right at the entrance to the Village of Cleves from US 50 (River Road) is the strangest looking cell tower many people have ever seen.
Dean Beckett, who owns Ann's Tavern nearby, says his customers have been asking him about it.
"It looks like a big heater to me," he said, "I have no idea what it is."
Krinsky decided to call the village administration office, then Hamilton County, and the State of Ohio, but no one knew anything about it, she says.
The most information she and some other homeowners were able to find out is that the tower is on the US 50 right-of-way, not in the Village, so that local officials would not have to be consulted.
"We don't know who put it up, if it is running 4G right now, and if it will run 5G soon," she said.
Why 5G service sparks fears
5G cell service has become the hottest controversy in many communities this year, as Verizon rolls it out to its first 30 cities -- among them, Cincinnati.
Krinsky has now joined those protesting it locally, because she says we don't know enough about health effects.
Some studies claim 5G transmissions can contribute to a variety of health problems, and a number of cities are attempting to stop the towers and slow the rollout.
"As a registered nurse, I am very much about informed consent," she said, "which is the right to choose, the right to decline." But she says community residents were never given an option when it came to the giant cylinder tower.
How do you know if 5G is coming?
Here's telltale sign your community is about get 5G towers: You'll see white PVC tubes, typically with an orange cap, popping out of the ground. WCPO reported on these strange tubes when they started appearing last year, with "Verizon Fiber" printed on them.
These pipes contain fiber lines that then connect all the 5G towers, as they have to be connected with fiber line to reach their promised high speeds.
The Facebook group SWORT, Southwest Ohio for Reasonable Technology, claims it has spotted small, cylindrical 5G towers in Finneytown, West Chester, Liberty Township, and in Springdale by the Tri-County Mall.
But the FCC allows these towers to go in with almost no local approval. The FCC and FAA claim there are no proven links between 5G cell service and health effects, and say local residents have no reason to fear these new towers.
But Hamilton County Engineer Ted Hubbard told us a few months ago that even he, and other county officials are left in the dark.
"The ownership is a big question," Hubbard said. "And I have asked that. We are having a hard time finding out who actually owns it."
That means no one has publicly stated who owns the mysterious Cleves tower, or any of the others popping up across the Tri State. It has no company name on the base.
A Verizon corporate spokesman, David Weissmann, confirmed to WCPO that the company is installing 5G towers in the Cincinnati area -- as he says one of the 30 cities that will soon have Verizon 5G service.
However, he said the strange Cleves tower "is not Verizon equipment."
Which means the mystery continues about the alien-looking structure towering over the Village of Cleves.
As always, don't waste your money.
Health....problems...of course
Time to get serious about tin foil hats, and full body Faraday cage.
Aliens
I grew up I Cincy....ever since they elected that CREEP, Jerry Springer MAYOR, Cincy has NEVER been the same nice place to live!!
I have argued until I’m blue in the face with 5G alarmists. I tell them that 5G service operates on the same frequencies as the 4G service and at the same power levels. I tell them that the difference is in the message protocols and the fiber-based infrastructure. They just call me ignorant.
What do they say about the towers on WKRP?
More 5G drama similar to the Fracking scare tactics.
China wants the USA to drop the ball on 5G so they can capture the entire market.
This is all about $$$ and who gets it.
I’m not worried about 5G health effects. I am worried about ascetics. There will be many times the number of towers, they have to be close to be effective and they are ugly.
Keep telling the truth!
5G is propaganda designed to keep the USA from competing in that market.
Its funny no one ever talks to Engineers....only politicians, reporters and activists.
One of these went up last year near me
Have seen a couple of others in my local travels
Owned by WPIG now probably.
Mosques?
Well, Springer was succeeded by Ken Blackwell. Of course, he was the last decent Mayor.
The gal in the article talks about how bad it looks. The camera pans over and amidst the utility poles and power lines and light poles and store signs - there it is!
Although at another location there is one just out in the open and looks out of place. One would think they could just attach it to an existing sign or utility pole.
We have a small electrical sub-station at the end of the block. We never had a problem with our cell-phone service until they did some upgrades to the place. They had trucks moving dirt out of there for months - but no change on the surface!
A neighbor that works for a dirt-moving company that bid on the job (but lost it) said there were no details in the bid except for how much dirt would need to be moved.
He guessed that amount of dirt would mean the place was expanded 5 stories underground. They also installed a high-security double fence around the site and a double gate at the entrance. I’m guessing it has something to do with homeland security - it was a few years after 9/11 that they did it.
Oh - and our cell phones barely work anymore. Hopefully the 5G if it ever gets here will help.
You know this is some nefarious plot to control people's minds don't you?
4G networks use frequencies below 6 GHz, but 5G uses extremely high frequencies in the 30 GHz to 300 GHz range.
Not arguing that 5g is a health concern, but they are very different.
ATandT has got 5G-E in this area (Tampa/St Petersburg FL) - it must be pretty spiffy and they are working to get us ready for 5G when it finally launches around here …
After reporting this phenomenon to my psychiatrist who wanted to prescribe meds, I said screw it.
So I went out and bought a years supply of tin foil and started making caps out of it and damn if those weird thoughts and things went away...............
Something strange is going on with those towers and it ain't good.............
