Abstract :
This paper illustrates the experimental results regarding VLF radio wave propagation, obtained during the partial solar eclipse in January 4th 2011. Two VLF transmitters were monitored using a VLF receiver equipment prototype. The data collected revealed strong disturbances of the VLF radio wave propagation during the partial solar eclipse.
