The site that I referenced
http://hintlink.com/power_density.htm

Utilizes the formulas specified in OET 65.
To comply with FCC guidelines, since I do run more power than the levels that the FCC allows to be run without doing the calculations, I have made the calculations for each band, for each mode I operate, for each antenna (I do have a fair number of different antennas), and at the maximum power I can run.  The result of each calculation has been printed out and those pages kept in a 3-ring binder that also houses my current log pages (yes, I still keep an old fashioned written log).
If, for some reason, a neighbor might question my operating, I can show them that there is no danger from my equipment and that I have complied with Federal Regulations concerning such.  It would be the same if, for some reason, a FCC representative might show up and want to verify that I have complied with the regulations.  The Dallas FCC office is located close to 5-miles from my house and, of course, there are FCC engineers close by. Glen, K9STH

FCC Regulations requires each ham to evaluate his/her exposure in accordance with OET 65.

Google it, download it, print it, and study it for your own personal safe compliance.
