ah yes, i too have enjoyed being in the middle of nowhere. i now have some neighbors, but at least no big apartment complexes and not too many houses. if you have physical isolation you should be fine. the larger risk is to people who use it over long ranges by using directional antennas and amplifiers to boost the range. in that case the signal can travel several miles, and although the antennas are directional it's not a pencil size beam, it gets pretty fat in the middle usually. of course if it were a tight beam the antennas would be impossible to aim without major pain. you my friend are in the one situation where attack by rf is unlikely, makes me long for the house i grew up in.
