Radio waves from a distant source at grazing incidence on the Earth's atmosphere are focused at the Moon. The intensity distribution at the Moon's distance is calculated. The outer ionosphere focuses most strongly radio waves of a wavelength λ >~ 1 m, giving a maximum increase in intensity of about 20. The E and F-layers give a smaller focusing effect.
