In the geometrical optics approximation, a synthesis oblique ionogram of ionospheric and magnetospheric HF radio wave signals propagating between magnetic conjugate points has been carried out. The magnetospheric HF propagation is considered for a model of the waveguide formed by field-aligned irregularities with depleted electron density. The characteristic peculiarities of the magnetospheric mode have been determined: (1) strong dispersion of the group delay with a frequency at 14-18 MHz, from -1.4 to 0.6 ms/MHz for magnetically conjugate points at geomagnetic latitudes Phi = 30, 40 and 50 deg, respectively, (2) spreading approximately 1-2 ms, and (3) a possibility of propagation between magnetic conjugate points at moderately low geomagnetic latitudes Phi(sub 0) approximately 30-40 deg at frequencies exceeding 1.5 times the maximum usable frequency (MUF) of multi-hop ionospheric propagation.
