They go by names such as “tropospheric ducting” and “sporadic E.” And sometimes they do spooky things with radio waves. Take the strange case of WPBX-FM in Southampton, N.Y., the Long ...

Radio engineers call it “ducting,” when atmospheric conditions in the summer wreak havoc with radio signals. And there’s not a whole lot that can be done about it, they say.

A radio which can tune to medium and long wave services usually has an aerial built in, which you cannot see. As the aerial is directional, by simply turning the radio you will be able to get the ...

This was created by atmospheric ducting, the refraction or guiding of electromagnetic radiation to follow the curvature of the Earth. The result whether it is radio waves or light being bent is ...
