Self-interaction of Radio Waves in the Ionosphere

Abstract

DURING the experiments on gyrointeraction made in Italy during May–June 1948, we often observed that the modulation percentage of the station Radio Vatican (emitting on 266 m. with a power of 5 kW. and about 70 per cent carrier modulation) was received at Turin (with a receiver tuned to 266 m.) with 30–35 per cent modulation (modulation frequency 230 or 450 c./s.).
