Off Hp before entering planes...

August 26, 2004 (TOKYO) -- Nagoya Municipal Management Subway will make mobile phones based on the Personal Digital Communications (PDC) system and the cdma/cdma2000 1x system inoperative on trains and train platforms in August or September.Originally posted by nismoS132:japanese trains want you to off your HP for decency's sake. not some l33t radar interfering capabilities. how soothing a quiet ride home after a hard day at work is something singaporeans will not understand
While the subway platforms were originally excluded from the area of the mobile phone service, the devices can receive radio waves on the upper floor of the subway station where ticket gates are located, according to the Transportation Bureau, City of Nagoya.
Thus, the bureau made it impossible to use the mobile phones on the platforms and in the trains by changing the location and direction of the antennas. The bureau judged that it would be too late to take these measures after a serious accident occurred.
Nagoya's transportation bureau has taken a fundamental measure.
In March, the bureau began installing on platforms the antennas for mobile phones based on the W-CDMA system, such as FOMA. The experiments conducted by MPHPT and other organizations have revealed that bringing the W-CDMA-based handset close to the pacemaker would not cause a malfunction of pacemakers when the distance between them is more than 1.4cm.
The bureau said 2cm is the minimum distance for the safe use of mobile phones in trains. However, it is difficult for passengers to find out immediately whether their mobile phone is based on the W-CDMA system.
The transportation bureau, therefore, bans passengers from sending and receiving e-mails as well as talking on their mobile phones while on trains, the bureau said. It also calls on passengers to keep their mobile phones turned off when the train is crowded.
According to the railway companies' spokesmen and officials in charge of this issue, they have not received any reports of trouble between a mobile phone holder and a pacemaker user. However, there was a report from Sapporo, Hokkaido that a pacemaker user felt sick by just seeing a handset, they said. -
the aircraft is on ground. and i'm on ground. the aircraft is not going to crash when its in the air and i'm on ground.Originally posted by darknessfall:ya..now u complaining abt not able to send an sms...
if the machine have disturbance and the plane crash or go out of course, i wonder if you will still call it "stupid radar interfering"
it doesnt really kill to off the hp for safety or for machine stability right?

then why cant terrorists just use handphones to wreck havoc rather than bombs ?

and how's that related to HP denpa making trains crash?Originally posted by ^tamago^:関係ないじゃない？ -
some planes allow, some planes don't..Originally posted by alexkusu:even my hp in offline mode for airplanes they dun allow -
"Thus, the bureau made it impossible to use the mobile phones on the platforms and in the trains by changing the location and direction of the antennas. The bureau judged that it would be too late to take these measures after a serious accident occurred."
not talking in trains is a culture, but then, there are also safety implications behind it. moreover, many ppl have gotten used with sms function, and ignored the call to switch off their mobile phones while on high-speed trains like shinkansen. -
cos they dun wan to go around checking whether u got set to offline mode or not, others just play safe say cannot use.Originally posted by Ito_^:some planes allow, some planes don't.. -
its a code. to activate a bomb.Originally posted by nismoS132:and how's that related to HP denpa making trains crash?
careful where you go now... -
Interference of the radiation from HP to the aircraft computer, which might make the navigation system go wrong, and misdirect the plane, causing crash. Also, the aircraft computer can be affected by HP, causing wrong commands then causing the plane to go haywire and crash.
Please switch off your HP when you are on an aircraft, for your own, and everyone's SAFETY. -
but even if they completely dun let u use oso not fool proof lor.Originally posted by ^tamago^:cos they dun wan to go around checking whether u got set to offline mode or not, others just play safe say cannot use.
and plane so boring. (no money sit good seats) -
flight mode can right?Originally posted by SBS9845X:Interference of the radiation from HP to the aircraft computer, which might make the navigation system go wrong, and misdirect the plane, causing crash.

I thought planes usually fly at 10000 feet ??Originally posted by ditzy:So you don't waste battery power searching for signals that are literally non existant at 33000 feet. -
Yes, you're right, fighter planes.Originally posted by gd4u:I thought planes usually fly at 10000 feet ?? -
Coz handphones are expensive.Originally posted by Allen.Iverson:then why cant terrorists just use handphones to wreck havoc rather than bombs ? Just check out the prices of the N80 and N91. Daylight robbery I tell you. -
i've been robbed...Originally posted by ditzy:Coz handphones are expensive. Just check out the prices of the N80 and N91. Daylight robbery I tell you.

Huh? so u mean commerical planes fly at 33000 feet while military aircraft fly at 10000 feet ? Y the difference ??Originally posted by ditzy:Yes, you're right, fighter planes. -
So they don't bump into each other for the wrong reasons?Originally posted by gd4u:Huh? so u mean commerical planes fly at 33000 feet while military aircraft fly at 10000 feet ? Y the difference ??
