Electromagnetic Radiation having a Frequency range from 1,000 to 300,000 megaHertz (Hz) , corresponding to a Wavelength range from 300 to 1 mm (about 12 to about 0.04 in.). Sho-Me’s backbone, looped system is 2 gigahertz, with 960 megahertz spurs. Microwaves are used in Microwave Ovens, Radar, and communications links spanning moderate distances, such as Cellular Telephone systems.
