In a recent experiment, discrete VLF emissions from the magnetosphere were triggered by a transmitter at Siple Station in Antarctica. Spectrograms of these signals as received at the conjugate point, Roberval, Quebec, showed changes in slope, entrainments, and cutoffs at frequencies (several kilohertz) close to the harmonic induction lines from the local 60-Hz power system. This observation led to the suggestion that harmonic radiation from the power system enters the magnetosphere and interacts with the triggered emissions. New evidence supporting this suggestion has been found in spectrograms of simultaneous recordings made at Roberval and at Siple Station in Antarctica. It is shown that line radiation, near harmonics of 60 Hz, travels along the earth's magnetic field in the whistler mode and is received in the conjugate hemisphere at Siple Station. Echoing of the line radiation between Siple and Roberval is often observed. The magnetospheric lines are usually shifted in frequency by 20-30 Hz with respect to the adjacent induction line, but their spacings are near 120 Hz. They may trigger and cut off emissions as do signals from VLF transmitters.
