The characteristic dimensions and enhancement factors for ducted propagation of late afternoon whistlers in the 20-30 deg latitude range were scanned. Data were taken in the form of measurements of two horizontal magnetic field components and one vertical electric component of VLF waves on Jan. 15-16, 1982 from three ground stations. Exit points for the whistlers were stable for 1.5-2.0 hr, lending credence to a ducted propagation interpretation. The whistlers moved toward higher latitudes along the earth-ionosphere waveguide. The ducts are projected to be no more than 60 km in diameter and decreasing with decreasing latitude. The ducts may form on the outer flank of an equatorial anomaly.
