frequency dependent dispersion in the ionosphere can affect sidebands

causing differential fading and distortion.

One could also consider selective fading.

that's just another name for it... i threw in the big words because
i'm sure that mr.b will look them up out of context and find all sorts
of hilarious ways to recombine them.

I am sure that the all my questions will be explained with the
ionosphere. The first my question was on the frequency doubling.
But yours selective fading means for me "distance itself does affect
sidebands". So you are very helpfull.


But you fail to recognize that distance ALONE does NOT affect sidebands
differently. It requires something else to be present.



For me all names are clear.
Ampere discovered the electrons and give them name "current elements".
Maxwell used "electric particless". But you all admire Heaviside's fluid
(massles and incompressible). Do you see the difference?
