Editorial comment: This video is a shortened version of the BBC Panorama documentary, 'Wi-Fi - A Warning Signal', which focuses on the Wi-Fi content of the programme.  There has been an additional graphic embedded within the video for reasons of emphasis:
 
'A Wi-Fi transmitter can be up to 3 times more powerful
than a mast placed outside the school at a distance of 100 metres.'  Source: Technical data
 

The first 40 seconds of the video features archive footage from the Orange mast protest at Hartburn Primary School, Stockton-on-Tees, in 1999. The school and parents were successful in their protest.
