Tweaks
•Created by the ionosphere “wave guide” cut-off effect of broad band lightning emissions
•
•At cut-off, usually about 3 kHz, there is a dispersive effect that causes the frequencies just above cut-off to be delayed in time, creating a “tweak” sound
•
•Cut-off wave length about 100 km. Ionosphere e-layer?
•
•May have interesting HF propagation prediction possibilities
