Abstract

The Arecibo Observatory celebrates its 50th anniversary, and a great variety of cutting-edge instrumentation, observations, and outstanding scientific results. Research using radars was only part of these achievements. Besides the powerful UHF and S-band radars, the VHF radar comprised only a minor contribution. The historical development of this ionosphere-atmosphere science direction at Arecibo Observatory is briefly remembered in this paper. My connections to Arecibo Observatory, summarized in this article, cover only just one decade out of the total of five decades of the Arecibo Observatory.
