Abstract
A laboratory model of a transhorizon propagation path has been used in an experiment designed to simulate the transmission of UHF energy beyond the radio horizon via the mechanism of tropospheric scatter. Electromagnetic energy was scattered over the radio horizon by dropping very small glass spheres through the beam of the transmitting antenna.
