Abstract

Transmissions from ground-based Loran stations have frequently been detected by the 2 MHz receiver on the Explorer 20 satellite; the form of the resultant interference permits the identification of individual Loran transmitters. A statistical study of the occurrence of the interference on passes recorded at Winkfield in the United Kingdom suggests that it is due to an E-W trough of low critical frequency at latitudes between about 55°N and 65°N at western European longitudes; this trough may be associated with the trough of low electron density observed over Canada by Muldrew.
