Does it then strike anyone as odd that the military would get funding for a Statement of Work that required 360 ten thousand watt transmitters and 180 large antennas that would radiate a signal that is tens of thousands of times less than the Sun's natural electromagnetic radiation? See my previous posting. HAARP was orginally conceived to generate ELF signals - if I recall correctly for communications with submarines while submerged. Prior to HAARP there was a project to install an ELF antenna across the state of Wisconsin (project Sangine) - but public outcry put pay to that. HAARP and the other Ionospheric heaters work by acting upon the polar electrojet and it only requires a relatively small amount of power (but in the MW range) to effectively modulate the electrojet. Compared to the cost of an aircraft carrier or aircraft - HAARP is cheap! Probably paid for out of petty cash. Regards David G4FTC
