Objective(s): To continue a radio communications study to determine the effect of the auroral zone on the bahavior of very low frequency (VLF) radio signals; to further knowledge concerning the receiving of VLF radio waves over long-distance high latitude paths by recording data on the intensities of such signals broadcast by specific VLF stations located in the USA, Puerto Rico and England.
Project Description: The Researchers will continue to collect data using an antenna and a computer operated VLF (very low frequency) signal receiving and recording equipment.
