Sur quelle bande la propagation par diffusion météorique est-elle la plus efficace?

  1. A15 mètres
  2. B160 mètres
  3. C6 mètres
  4. D40 mètres

Correct answer: C — 6 mètres. Question tirée de la banque officielle d'ISDE.

Why

Meteor scatter works best on the 6 metres band because the ionized trails left by burning meteors are most effective at reflecting radio waves in the very high frequency range, which includes 6 metres. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
