Abstract :
Standard procedures used at ionospheric observatories to determine the ionospheric characteristic M(3000)F2 by means of overlays or sliders applied to vertical-incidence ionograms are examined. Equations are presented to determine the corresponding values directly from numerical h¿(f) data.
