Differences in quasi-specular scattering by the lunar surface have been observed at 23-cm wavelength by using earth-based radar. By taking advantage of libration, three subradar points were isolated, and distinct scattering laws were identified for terrain near Hipparchus, Sinus Medii, and the crater Schroeter F. Interpretations of lunar radar data should henceforth incorporate a recognition that these variations take place. Unidirectional rms surface slope estimates of 6-8 deg in the Central Highlands and 4-5 deg in old mare are appropriate to horizontal scales of 100 m.
