自1970年以来，商务部的普拉特维尔发射机设施一直被用于修改电离层。设计概念和设施的主要组成部分的说明进行了讨论。当用于电离层修改研究时，两个10单元环形阵列天线中的一个，每个产生右旋或左旋圆极化信号，由平均功率高达2 Mw的发射机激发。这些阵列允许在2.7至10兆赫的频率范围内工作，这是大致匹配不同电离层临界频率所需的。
The Department of Commerce's Platteville transmitter facility has been used to modify the ionosphere since 1970. Design concepts and a description of major components at the facility are discussed. When used for ionospheric modification studies, one of two 10-element ring-array antennas, each producing right- or left-handed circularly polarized signals, is excited by a transmitter which develops up to 2 Mw of average power. These arrays permit operation in the frequency range from 2.7 to 10 MHz, as required to approximately match varying ionospheric critical frequencies.
