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.

The DX Info Centre Tropospheric Ducting Forecast site provides a six-day forecast of potential VHF, UHF and microwave radio and TV anomalous propagation. News and Business; ... The forecast predicts ...

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 ...

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 ...

Radio waves have the longest wavelengths in the EM spectrum, according to NASA, ranging from about 0.04 inches (1 millimeter) to more than 62 miles (100 kilometers).

When the New York Times first wrote about "mysterious radio waves" from the cosmos in 1933, they made sure to note one fundamental caveat: "No Evidence of Interstellar Signaling." Indeed, the ...

A bizarre spinning object has been detected sending out strange radio wave pulses deep in space. This object, named GPM J1839-10, is around 15,000 light years away from Earth, and has been spotted ...

Researchers in Antarctica detected strange radio waves. The signals came from under the ice. The ANITA experiment picked up these unusual waves. Scientists initially searched for neutrinos. But ...
