In this paper, the changes in the critical frequency of the F2-layer of the ionosphere which followed the sudden commencement of the great magnetic storm of 11 February 1958 are studied both with regard to storm-time and local-timo variations at a number of stations from the magnetic equator to magnetic dip 72° in three different meridional sections. The changes are then examined to find the differences, if any, between places magnetically conjugate on either side of the magnetic equator and approximately along the same longitude. They are further compared with variations in the horizontal component of the earth's magnetic field. The disturbed-day variation of [latin small letter f with hook]0F2 is the combined net effect of storm-time, disturbance-diurnal and seasonal variations. The changes in [latin small letter f with hook]0F2 show distinct differences around 20° and 45° magnetic dips. There is no one-to-one correspondence between [Delta]([latin small letter f with hook]0F2) and [Delta]H. The local time of commencement of the storm has a marked control on the changes in [latin small letter f with hook]0F2.
