In recent years, studies of burst precipitation into the ionosphere at auroral and subauroral latitudes near the plasmapause projection have yielded significant new results. Much, however, remains to be learned about the precipitation regions and their dynamics. The use of subionospheric VLF transmissions from a source to multiple receivers provides an attractive approach for extending the knowledge regarding these subjects. Attention is given to a configuration in which signals from the experimental VLF transmitter at Siple, Antarctica, are received at Palmer, Halley, and South Pole stations. In principle, the proposed method is an extension of the single-station methods used to study burst effects within the plasmasphere. This report has the objective to describe initial observations of burst precipitation effects on Siple transmitter signals propagating on paths lying poleward of the plasmapause projection and on a path originating outside the plasmapause.
