The field intensity of the Siple transmitter signal was measured at four stations along the geomagnetic meridian from July 10 to August 10, 1979, with a separation of 70-90 km and L values from 4.15 to 4.7. The field intensity of the signal was found to fall off rapidly with distance, at a typical rate of attenuation with distance as high as -7 db per 100 km, which is about 1 order of magnitude higher than values obtained from the earth ionosphere cavity propagation theory. The frequency band of the chorus shifted to a higher frequency at 1300 UT, and at 1345 UT, chorus activity became very low. Chorus activity appeared to move toward higher latitudes as its intensity dropped in late local morning hours, which agrees with the general pattern of local time dependence of chorus activity obtained by Pope (1963).
