MHz stands for Megahertz. Hertz is another way of saying cycles per second, or the frequency of a radio wave. So, if your cell phone works on 980 Mhz, it means that the signal is oscillating 980,000,000 times per second! To put this into perspective, your favorite FM radio station, say 104.3 is transmitting at 104,300,000 hertz. moving lower in the radio spectrum we can go down to AM radio and it transmits in KHz. Kilohertz or thousands of hertz. So 880 on your AM dial is transmitting at 88,000 hertz. Cordless phones and computers routers are typically in the 2.4 GHz region or 2.4 Gigahertz, meaning billions of hertz.
