Radio use Radio use The MobileMapper 60 handheld contains a Bluetooth® radio, a WLAN (Wi-Fi) radio, and a 4G cellular modem radio. In some situations, you may be required to turn off the radios. For example, aviation authority regulations restrict the use of wireless transmission devices on board aircraft.
Spectra Geospatial therefore believes the internal wireless radios are safe for use by users. The level of electromagnetic energy emitted is hundreds of times lower than the electromagnetic energy emitted by wireless devices such as mobile phones.
