Scientific paper

The feasibility of using the GOES satellite time signal is discussed for field stations at high Arctic latitudes. Results are presented for three ground stations on islands in the Canadian Archipelago. The stations range in latitude from 75 deg to 81 deg 30 min N. At all locations, time code reception was found to be satisfactory and capable of providing accurate time reference for remote experiments. A simple design for a high gain helical antenna, used successfully at these latitudes for time signal reception, is also presented. The antenna, primarily intended for a small research field station, is portable, inexpensive, and readily constructed.
