STUDY OF THE ARCTIC IONOSPHERE BY AEEANS OF STEP FREQUENCY BACKSCATTER SOUNDING.

A Granger step-sounder was instadd opera ted in the backscatter mode at College, Alaska. Preliminary results indicate that direct back scatter echoes from the E and F regions predomi nate when sounding north. A southerly motion of radio auroral echoes as sunset approaches, simi lar to that observed...
