A ray-tracing model in which an interhemispheric plasma asymmetry exists, has been used to investigate the propagating characteristics of multicomponent whistlers recorded at Siple Station (L = 4.3), during local dawn on 4 Jul 1982, under very quiet geomagnetic conditions. The 3 kHz rays were started in the summer hemisphere at 300 km altitude, with vertical wave normals at 0.001° latitude intervals and over initial latitude ranges from which rays became trapped in eight ducts (L = 2.9 - 4.6). Final latitudes and final wave normal distributions at 300 km altitude in the winter hemisphere were calculated. The best results for trapping rays in each duct were obtained for a duct modeled (δ = 0.15 and σd= 50 km) to terminate at 300 km altitude and to reach full enhancement at 2100 km in both hemispheres, disregarding the seasonal variations.
