This is what was advertised and something very different is happening. See the Small Cell here that is just a bit more powerful that a Wi-Fi Router? Well what they are putting in are thousands of Watts. Make sure you know the FCC rules and what is scheduled for installation in your neighborhood.

Telecoms are currently pushing installation of Wireless Telecom Facilities (WTF) that do not appear to comply with current Federal Law. They are doing it because it will cost them a lot more to comply with the rules. You will need to go to your Municipal or County Building Departments and ask to review the pending permit applications for WTF to know if one is planned for installation in the Right-of-Way of your home or community.

There are eight ROW permits in Lantana for small cells, from Verizon. The antenna is only partially defined but appears to have multiple antennas and bands of high power. These are being installed in close proximity to people and their homes and do not likely comply with FCC rules for Effective Radiated Power. The planned sites are as follows and FCC Complaint have been filed on the first four:

Lantana Permits

1402 West Mango

401 Minnesota

555 East Coast

708 S Broadway

1003 S Broadway

1300 S Broadway

1142 W Garnett St

1319 W Jennings

I also found numerous “Small” cells going up in Boynton Beach from AT&T What can be seen installed appears to be a high powered antennas in close proximity to people and their homes. The proposed antenna in the plans has a maximum input power of approximately 2,000 watts and an effective radiated power of approximately 17,000 watts. Here is the antenna https://www.kathreinusa.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/84010603_84010604-2019-R1.1.pdf . It comes with a 100 amp service and a 200 amp meter – enough for a Macro Cell Tower . The sites being permitted are as follows. High Ridge Road has an even larger antenna and is discussed in a separate post.
