Abstract

Frequencies scaled from an Alouette II ionogram can be in error by five times the resolution of the sounder system when linear interpolation is used between the nominal values of the frequency markers. These errors are significant for certain geophysical measurements. A correction procedure is presented which allows frequency measurements to be made with an accuracy comparable to the resolution.
