HF-CURRENT DRIVE IN THE ABSENCE OF AMBIENT CURRENTS USE PONDEROMOTIVE FORCE OF HF TO DRIVE MODULATED CURRENTS IN THE PRESENCE OF AMBIENT CURRENTS [ ELECTROJETS] USE HF TO MODULATE LOCALLY THE IONOSPHERIC CONDUCTIVITY----> CREATE MODULATED CURRENTS CERENKOV GENERATION ----> FAST HEATER SWEEPING AURORAL ELECTROJET EQUATORIAL ELECTROJET

FOR THE 95 dbw 3.6 MW CASE THIS GIVES A 18 db INCREASE IN THE ELF/VLF MAGNETIC MOMENT. IN THE ABSENCE OF RUNAWAY THE INCREASE WOULD HAVE BEEN 1dB P 2 SCALING. THE HEATING/COOLING RATIO REACHES VALUES BETWEEN 5-1 ALLOWING INCREASE IN THE EFFECTIVE RADIATING AREA BY COHERENT SWEEPING PAINTING. THIS COULD PROVIDE AN ADDITIONAL 2-3 db. AT 76 H THE RADIATING MOMENT WOULD EXCEED THAT OF THE MICHIGAN FELF BY 2-3 db. THE ELF/VLF AVAILABILITY INCREASES SIGNIFICANTLY, SINCE GOOD SIGNALS WOULD BE PRODUCED EVEN WITH E-FIELDS AS LOW AS 2 mv/m raher han 2 mv/m needed now.
