I dont think they do, Radio waves diffract less and arn't affected by the ionosphere which is the upper part of the atmosphere.
Most electromagnetic waves are affected severely by the atmosphere, which is a good thing due to the strength they carry EXCEPT microwaves *Apparantly*.

What are some negative factors about radio waves?
Radio Waves can cause radiation. :(
Is radio waves a compound word?
ya radio waves is a compound word
Neither X rays nor radio waves can penetrate the earth's atmosphere?
False. For some bands of radio waves the atmosphere is transparent. Radio waves can penetrate to the ground. That's why we have radio telescopes on the Earth.
Can a fridge freezer be affected by radio waves?
No.
What part of the atmosphere that reflects radio waves?
If you are talking about short waves then the ionosphere.
What Layer of the atmosphere that reflects am radio waves?
Lonosphere
What is the layer in the atmosphere that reflects radio waves?
Ionosphere
What level of atmosphere bounces off radio waves off of the earth?
Radio waves are in all parts of the atmosphere. Some, but not all, radio waves are reflected from the ionosphere, permitting transmission over greater distances.
What layer of atmosphere is radio waves?
the lonosphere
What layer of the atmosphere reflects radio waves?
the ionosphere.
What is the layer of atmosphere that reflects radio waves?
the lonosphere
What is zone of the atmosphere which affects the transmission of radio waves?
Ionosphere
Part of atmosphere used to bounce shortwave radio waves?
Radio waves bounce off of the ionosphere and return back to Earth.
What is an electromagnetic wave spectrum that our atmosphere doesn't absorb?
Radio waves aren't absorbed by the atmosphere.
