The Clark Lake Radio Observatory, viewing four exceptionally strong, quasi-point celestial sources at 50 MHz, has been used to perform systematic, around-the-clock observations of transionospheric radio refraction during a 17-day campaign in February/March 1987. These data complement those gathered elsewhere, by concentrating on raypaths near and poleward of zenith. Average (rms fluctuating) transverse slant total electron content gradients are observed which are weaker, by factors of 2 to more than 10, than those observed at other facilities sited further poleward and viewing sources located further equatorward. The frequently observed quasi-periodic oscillations are clustered in the frequency range up to 2 mHz. The expected suppression of refractive activity in this band is not seen during the night, despite the nocturnal reduction of ionospheric density.
