Calibrated VLF Phase Measurements.

Abstract

An investigation of spatial irregularity of VLF phase is discussed. It is shown that the phase is regular to the accuracy of the instrumentation, and that a grounded steel tower in close proximity to a whip antenna will not affect the phase measurement. However, antennas coupling to trees may cause an anomalous phase shift.
