Scientific paper

Comparing the vertical F region drifts measured by the VHF back scatter radar at Jicamarca and the vertical incidence ionograms at Huancayo, it has been found that a reversal of the F region vertical drift to positive (upward) value during any time of the night is followed by the generation of Range type spread F configurations in the ionograms, with a delay of half to one hour. It is suggested that the reversal to a strong eastward electric field is an essential condition for producing Range type of equatorial spread F at late times of the night when no spread F has occurred early.
