Radio Signals

About

Radio waves are the most primitive form of communication supported on a universal level, providing an effective method of communicating over smaller stellar distances, such as between a planet and one of its moons, or a ship in orbit.

Interference

About

Interference is an entity that is triggered by the use, activation or in some circumstances existence of an object that will disrupt the measurable and observable properties of its surroundings. An example of the effects of interference is the aftereffect of an EMP... something used to knock out Earth based electronics during warfare.

Specifications

Interference is measured by the following:

Strength: 0.0% to 100.0%

Type: Electromagnetic, Optical, Subspace, Gravitational
