This second part of the series has studied ionospheric currents outside the dip equatorial zone in the three groups of: high-latitude currents beyond 70° latitude (Group 6), daytime currents within 35° to 70° dip latitude (Group 5), and daytime currents with 7° to 35° dip latitude (Group 4). Ionospheric currents have been found and measured with rockets in all three groups, and their directions are in conformity with expectations from geomagnetic variations: eastwards equatorward of the Sq focus (Group 4), westwards between the Sq focus and high latitudes (Group 5), and complex in the higher and polar latitudes (Group 6). Of great interest is the discovery that the currents occur in the two eastward layers in Group 4 but only in one layer in Groups 5 and 6.
