Although GALAXY is not acell phone, it can

operate on

the

same network as cell phones and can use the same

Radio

as

(RF) signals to communicate with the network

. Therefore,

although the

health problems

The low levels of RF cell phones emit while in use are in the

microwave

frequency

range.They also emit RF

at

reduced time intervals when in the stand

mode. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health

effects

(by heating tissue), exposure to low level RF that does

not

produce heating effects causes no known adverse health

effects.
