A description is presented of some preliminary results of a statistical study aimed at further clarifying the effect of power line radiation (PLR) on very low frequency (VLF) wave activity in the magnetosphere. A question of particular interest is whether PLR is a significant factor in overall VLF wave activity at middle latitudes. The data used in the study come from Siple, Antarctica, which is conjugate to a strong PLR source region in Quebec. It is found that magnetospheric wave intensity in the 2- to 4-kHz range monitored at Siple shows a distinct minimum on Sunday, as does the occurrence of PLR-induced emissions identified in broadband spectral data from Simple. It is suggested that both effects are due to reduced power consumption on Sunday in the PLR source region in eastern Canada.
