Changes of the H component observed by Magsat for equatorial dawn and dusk passes at seven altitude slabs equivalent to about 30 km each, viz 340-370, 370-400, 400-430, 430-460, 460-490, 490-520, and 520-540 km, were compared with ground D(st). The correlation coefficients were generally high (greater than + 0.90) except for some slabs in some longitude belts, when correlations were lower, indicating these slabs as possible sources of some stray, transient currents. However, Delta H(0) were always negative for all slabs, indicating that, if a steady current existed, it should be above the ground, but below 340 km altitude.
