Abstract
Measurements of total electron content of the ionosphere above Huancayo, Peru by observation of Faraday fading of satellite signals during January through March 1967 are reported. The data are examined to study principally the diurnal variation of total electron content and of equivalent slab thickness as well as the latitudinal variation of the electron content. The diurnal variation is characterized by the occurrence of a midday biteout. The equivalent slab thickness reaches a peak around midday besides exhibiting a hump in the early morning hours. The latitudinal variation of electron content in the afternoon shows a dip around the magnetic equator.
