Zenith-directed Fabry-Perot Spectrometer (FPS) and 3-Field Photometer (3FP) observations of the λ630 nm emission (~240 km altitude) were obtained at Davis station, Antarctica, during the austral winter of 1999. Eleven nights of suitable data were searched for significant periodicities common to vert...
