Results are presented for simultaneous observations of whistlers at two Alaskan stations (L roughly 4) during one occasion lasting 24 hr, another lasting 10 hr, and a third lasting 6 hr. Of the three periods of simultaneous observations studied, two showed patterns of equatorial electron density which were stationary in L-LMT space and which were unchanging for at least 1.5 hr of UT. The third showed a marked change, the nature of which being accounted for by east-west gradients corotating with the stations. All three periods exhibited persistent stationary patterns of whistler duct tracks, each thin in the cross-L direction and extensive in the east-west direction. It would appear that either the ducts are stable shells or there is a succession of ducts arrayed along the contours and possibly corotating with the earth along the stationary tracks. Multistation direction finding on the whistler exit points may elucidate the relevant interpretations.
