Propagation 21 adio waves, like light waves and all other forms of electro-magnetic radiation, normally travel Rin straight lines. Obviously this does not happen all the time, because long-distance communi- cation depends on radio waves traveling beyond the horizon. How radio waves propagate in other than straight-line paths is a complicated subject, but one that need not be a mystery. This chapter, by Emil Pocock, W3EP, provides basic understanding of the principles of electromagneti
