Kinesonde Observations of ionosphere modification by intense electromagnetic fields from Platteville, Colorado

TL;DR: In this paper, the Kinesonde observations of ionospheric responses to excitation by the high-power transmitter at Platteville, Colo., are described, showing that significant onset delays of these responses suggest disturbance propagation velocities of a few kilometers per second.
