Thanks Peter! Knowing there is a complex mechanism behind it such as the plasma oscillation frequency helps to make it more intuitive. I hope to get to a point where I can make a frequency choice as second nature by knowing current conditions of the ionosphere. Neil

Hi All, I'm studying for a Ham Radio test and can't for the life of me understand the mechanism behind higher (in this case, Radio) frequencies leading to less refraction in (again in this case, the ionosphere) mediums. I'm sure light waves/dense transparent media has the same explanation...
