Everything about Low frequency

30–300 kHz range of the electromagnetic spectrum

Low frequency (LF) is the ITU designation for radio frequencies (RF) in the range of 30–300 kHz. Since its wavelengths range from 10–1 km, respectively, it is also known as the kilometre band or kilometre waves. Frequencies immediately below LF are denoted very low frequency (VLF), while the next band of higher frequencies is known as the medium frequency (MF) band. Wikipedia →
