Per IEEE 100-1988 "Standard Dictionary of Electrical and Electronics Terms"

"(A) (Loosly). The frequency in the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum
that is between the audio-frequency portion and the infrared portion. (B)
The frequency useful for radio transimision. Note: The present practicable
limits of radio frequency are roughly 10kHz (kilohertz) to 100 000 MHz
(megahertz). Within this frequency range electromagnetic radiation may be
detected and amplified as an electric current at the wave frequency."
