The low-frequency part of the wave experiment onboard the Viking spacecraft has provided high-quality wave data since the beginning of the operational period of the satellite mission. There are numerous measurements of electrostatic hydrogen cyclotron waves related to upward flowing ion beams. Also a large number of other ion cyclotron harmonic wave phenomena with various free energy sources have been detected. At higher frequencies there are good measurements of VLF saucers, magnetospheric ELF hiss and lower hybrid waves. The data from two simultaneously sampling Langmuir probes seem very promising for studies of spatial turbulence and small-scale solitary plasma density structures.
