Radio Station Power Output to surroundings

[gthelen]

Hello,
Not sure if this is the right place to post, if not please point me to right area.
A radio station is planning new towers in my neighborhood, around 25K Watts, both Am and FM stations. 2 Towers about 100 ft. apart and 100 to 150 ft. high.
What is the equation to tell me how much power a neighbor receives from these towers in a house?
Is there a "Safe - Unsafe" level of power like this that can be tolerated by a person. I am getting the radio station in my phone now, how much louder will it get?

Thanks

Suggestion: Try Antenna & Propagation Engineering in this Forum
This always a problem. There are some squelch circuit available to suppress the spurious signals.

There are specific exposure limits for RF that the radio station must comply with under the terms of its FCC license. Their documents indicating compliance should be available for public inspection.

Visit the FCC website and do some exploring. I believe you will find some information related to RF safety.

RF interference is a different matter. As long as RF levels at your location are within FCC limits, the problem is with your equipment.

Check

and do a search on RFI.

Good luck.
