      How do i disable radios if i do not need them to save power and radiation if required. I want to be ablew to turn of the sigfox, or lora or LTE radio on demand. Are they off by default and how do i know if they are consuming power?

        you can disable the radios in the following way:

        from network import WLAN, LTE
        
        w = WLAN()
        w.deinit()
        
        lte = LTE()
        lte.deinit()
        

        And the Sigfox and LoRa radios are turned off automatically if you are not transmitting or receiving with them
