Abstract
IN a recent publication, Belrose and Hewitt1 have produced evidence for a variation in collision frequency with solar activity in the lowest ionosphere (at about 60 km height). In this communication we direct attention to similar results which we have obtained for a somewhat higher altitude (about 110 km).
