Stability of the dayside ionospheric plasma containing photoelectrons relative to the excitation of its own potential oscillations is studied. It is assumed that the plasma thermal electrons have the equilibrium distribution while the photoelectrons possess a complex nonmonotonic energy spectrum. The plasma oscillation increments, which take into account a collision damping in the ionospheric F-region, have been analyzed numerically. Our results show that the F-region is stable and disagrees with the results and conclusions of Blomberg (1975). A discussion is given where the disagreement originates.
