HAARP Notice of Transmission & Other Info

[Whitham Reeve]

Attached is the notice for the 4-8 November (UTC) research campaign. 

The transmission notice includes supplemental information as well as details on the AIRGlow experiments that might be visible weather permitting to observers within roughly 500 km of the HAARP facility near Gakona, Alaska. 

Regardless of weather, there will be plenty of radio experiments to listen for.

Also attached is the media announcement for the campaign. Additional information about HAARP can be found here: https://haarp.gi.alaska.edu/

Hi Whitham,

 

 

The pdf you attached states “For certain HAARP experiments that deal with interactions in the ionosphere, transmission frequencies below f_0F2 are desireable, while for other experiments (such as those involving high-altitude satellites), staying above f_0F2 is required.” Isn’t the Earth’s plasmosphere entirely connected in terms of at least nonlinear secondary emission at other frequencies other than <f_0F2 for strong enough f_0F2 emission?

 

Is that a real UAFHAARP explanation? Because it doesn’t sound entirely accurate. I question that satellites are specific to monitoring <f_0F2 phenomenon in particular in your attached pdf.

 

I thought the stepwise conversion to various parts of the plasmosphere were just a modifying Frequency-modulation/continuous wave.

 

 

Thanks,
Michael Sabino

Thanks for your question, Michael - Not all HAARP experiments are used to modify the ionosphere above the facility or to produce emissions. Some are used to measure scintillation and other effects related to propagation to/from satellites or terrestrial stations. I briefly discussed this during my HAARP presentation at the 2021 SARA Spring Conference.

f0F2 is one of the reference points in determining the IRI transmission frequency, and depending on the experiment, the IRI frequency may be above or below f0F2. f0F2 is quire variable even on short time scales. Sometimes the gyro frequency fce (usually a harmonic) is used as a reference point. Sometimes the IRI frequency is unrelated to f0F2.

We would like to provide more detail but there simply is not enough staff for that. Meanwhile, check out the HAARP FAQ page: https://haarp.gi.alaska.edu/faq

I will be operating an array of receivers during the experiments + other related activities, so from now (1800 UTC) until after the day's experiments are completed, I probably won't have a chance to answer any questions. I will try to answer afterwards but please don't think for a microsecond that I fully understand every detail of every experiment. I don't think anybody does - that's the reason for the research.
