I wouldn't expect to find much technical detail in a wireservice
story--but you can attempt to obtain the actual report if you're
interested in the details.  By the way, UHF television transmitters
operate at frequencies high enough that we'd expect to see much the
same effects as for higher frequency microwaves.  An interesting
problem now being studied is the effect of high frequency RF (even
at low power) when in close proximity to the body.  This includes
devices such as 450 Mhz hand-held radios and the newer cellular
hand-helds, which operate at almost twice that frequency.
