Long Distance VHF Propagation Of Signals
Mostly VHF and UHF signals go straight from the transmitter to the receiver by almost line of sight. However, there are times when these rules are disobeyed and a signal from many thousands of kilometres away can appear on your dial as loud and as clear as a local broadcast.
So what causes signals to make this journey and, more importantly, is it possible to predict when the conditions will be right?
If you've ever found an unusual station on FM or seen strange foreign signals on your TV then the article in my blog, 'Listening', is just for you.
Of course, if you're interested in VHF or UHF signal reception or transmission then the link below is for you, too.
