Would sky waves be suitable for transmission of TV signals of 60 MHz frequency?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

No, because of TV signals of frequency 60 MHz is greater than 30 MHz (i.e., the upper limit of signal
frequency for sky wave propagation). Therefore, T.V. signal will not be reflected by the ionosphere but will penetrate throught the ionosphere.
