A wearable device includes a frame and a magnetic coupler opening formed in the frame. Wearable device further includes a processor, a memory accessible to the processor, and a very high frequency (VHF) radio transceiver for data transmission and reception and connected to the processor. Wearable device further includes a magnetic coupler connected to the VHF radio transceiver. Magnetic coupler includes a diamagnetic material shaped to form a VHF transmission or reception terminal that partially or fully aligns with the magnetic coupler opening. During transmission, magnetic coupler is configured to radiate transmitted VHF band radio modulated signals into tissue of the user. During reception, magnetic coupler is configured to absorb received VHF band radio modulated signals from the tissue of the user.
