What is 1 hertz equal to in dekahertz?

One hertz equals 0.1 dekahertz according to the conversion rate defined.

When should I use dekahertz instead of hertz?

Dekahertz is preferable for representing frequencies in the tens of hertz range, such as in power system harmonics or low-frequency seismic signals.

Is dekahertz suitable for high-frequency signals like radio frequencies?

No, dekahertz is mainly applicable for low-frequency ranges and is less precise for high-frequency signals such as those in the radio or optical domain.
