Will I see interference on devices such as 4G handsets, radio, tablets and computers?
4G handsets are unlikely to be affected. 4G at 800 MHz will not affect digital radio services operating as Digital Audio Broadcast (DAB) services or on satellite and cable platforms. You may see interference if you use your computer to watch TV using a USB tuner.
