  2. Very low frequency or VLF is the ITU designation for radio frequencies (RF) in the range of 3–30 kHz, corresponding to wavelengths from 100 to 10 km, respectively. The band is also known as the myriameter band or myriameter wave as the wavelengths range from one to ten myriameters (an obsolete metric unit equal to 10 kilometers).
    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Very_low_frequency
    VLF refers to radio frequencies (RF) in the range of 3 kHz to 30 kHz and wavelengths from 10 to 100 kilometers. There is very little bandwidth in this band of the radio spectrum; therefore, audio (voice) cannot be transmitted and only low data rate coded signals are used.

    Very Low Frequency (VLF) is a radio frequency band in the range of 3 to 30 kHz with wavelengths from 10 to 100km. It has a limited bandwidth and is mostly only used for coded signals with low data rate such as underwater communication.

    Because of their long wavelengths, VLF radio waves can diffract around large obstacles and so are not blocked by mountain ranges, and … See more

    Because of the small bandwidth of the band, and the extremely narrow bandwidth of the antennas used, it is impractical to transmit audio signals (AM or FM radiotelephony). … See more

    A major practical drawback to the VLF band is that because of the length of the waves, full size resonant antennas (half wave dipole or quarter wave monopole antennas) cannot be built because of their physical height. Vertical antennas must be used because VLF … See more

  5. Introduction to VLF – Stanford VLF Group - KU

    WEBELF/VLF stands for Extremely Low Frequency and Very Low Frequency, and refers to the range 300 Hz to 30 kHz. We’re talking about radio waves, like the AM/FM signals you get, just at an even lower frequency.
