During its operation from 1973 to 1988, the Siple Station
experiment provided numerous observations of magnetospheric
wave's particle and wave's interactions and it remains the
preeminent source for validating computer simulations of whistler
mode wave's particle interactions. The Siple Station Experiment
consisted of a transmitting station in Antarctica and a
receiving station located at the conjugate point in Quebec,
Canada. Siple Station, Antarctica was located at 75.93 deg. S,
84.25 deg. W geographic, corresponding to an invariant latitude
of 60.4 deg. S, at L = 4.2. The facility operated a 100 kW, 21.2
Km elevated dipole transmitting between 1 to ~6kHz. In 1986 the
Siple station facility was upgraded with the addition of crossed
dipoles for the generation of variable polarization.

The main observation point for the whistler mode signals
from Siple station was near the geomagnetic conjugate point
first (1973-1985) at Roberval, Quebec (48.52 deg. N, 72.23 deg. W)
and from 1986 to 1988
near Lake Mistissini, Canada (50.42 deg. N, 73.87
deg. W). The receiver system consisted of two delta-shaped crossed loops
mounted on a central 30-foot-high(~9 m) support with a base of 60
feet (18.3 m).

Complete results of the Siple

station experiment are summarized in Helliwell, R. A.,(1988)
Rev. Geophys., 26, 551-578, but analysis
work on this dataset continued well after the experiment
ended. These data were originally stored on Ampex magnetic tapes
then converted over to a digitized format with some error
correction applied as described by Li et al., (2014) JGR, 119,1837-1850.
