For example, when using your phone in areas of low service and the internet is slow or call audio quality is poor, what is happening to the radio / microwaves in transmission to your device?

photons be chillin in different directions when they scatter. it’s like when you throw a ball in a crowded room. some get caught some bounce away. vibes influence how good the service is though so more vibes = better calls
