Grimeton Radio Station is still an active center for radio communication. Therefore, please pay attention to and respect the signage and boundaries in the visitor area, as outside this area there is equipment, antennas, and cables in use. During operation, these generate electromagnetic fields, but as long as the restrictions are followed, the facility assesses that the exposure visitors may risk during their visit is extremely small. However, individuals with medical implants and pregnant women should still avoid being present during the startup of the Alexanderson transmitter.
