Abstract :
A tropospheric scatter radio link designed to meet the CCIR class 2 performance recommendations was installed in 1967 between Hong Kong and Taiwan. Since the system was commissioned in 1967, chart recorders had been used to monitor the received signal levels. The annual statistics were obtained from these monitorings and the worst month was determined. A datalogger was then installed to collect the worst month statistic. The results of the monitorings which are also used for comparing the prediction methods given in the CCIR volume 5 green book are discussed
