Abstract
IONOSPHERIC measurements at the Royal Society Base at Halley Bay (75° 31′ S. 26° 36′ W. geomagnetic latitude 65° 47′ S.) started on April 1, 1957, and some results for the first year's operation are now available. The Base lies in the zone where the magnetic dip is abnormally small (65°) considering the high latitude and the general ionospheric variations are found to be remarkably regular.
