I wonder whether there's been any serious research in this area. Sure seems that it's a fairly important part of science. I suspect the military would be very interested in all things to do with propagation, especially in years past. I would imagine that they'd run across the differences if they were looking....whether they'd care or not, I'm not sure, but things like this should be published somewhere, wouldn't you think? .......Walt. _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: [email protected]
