Ducting on upper VHF TV channels, UHF

[John Bolduc]

Matt

That type of skip is affecting TV channel 2 known as E-Layer Ionishperic
Skip, which while still "skip" is very different from tropospheric skip.
E-Skip usually affects tv channels 2-6, public safety low band freqs 30-50
Mhz, FM broadcast band, etc. and is usually quite unstable, but occurs
over very great distances.

Ducting/tropo skip usually affects FM broadcast band and above, is usually
stable for quite a period of time, but covers much shorter distances,
usually less than 800 miles and more typically less than 300.
