Data from GOES 2 and 3 for March 1979-February 1980 have been scanned to investigate dramatic variations of stormtime Pc5 waves with local magnetic field inclination angle. Using the GOES 3 Pc5 events as a control set, the dependence of GOES 2-monitored Pc5 occurrence on the local magnetic field inclination angle is investigated. In addition, by means of a simple partial ring current model producing field distortion at GOES 2, the equivalent Goes 2 L value is determined for each 10-min interval during which Pc5 waves were observed at both satellites. During 93 percent of the Pc5 wave intervals, the local magnetic field inclination angle was less than 40 deg, corresponding to an outer limit of L = 7.4.
