Sure, but the minimum frequency for efficient propagation is well above the geostorm frequencies. For example, the NIST LF frequency standard transmits at 60KHz, and whistlers cover the audio range. I believe submarine communications take place at 10 Hz, and the Schumann Resonances cover the range from 6 to 10 Hz: http://itss.raytheon.com/cafe/qadir/q768.html All these require a very sensitive receiver and a good antenna array. The cs generator makes a poor receiver, and the short leads make a lousy antenna:) The frequency of GICs is very low (one to a few milliHertz) http://www.hsb.com/thelocomotive/Story/FullStory/ST-FS-SOLAR.html So any induced electric field will be too weak to have any effect on cs.

Animals are much closer to nature than we are, and there are many well-documented cases of dogs giving warning just before major earthquakes. > Solar as well as other ionic disturbances are recorded from > electrically (static) sensitive devices as well as magnetic > (inductive) ones, all due respect to railroad engineers. Shawn Carleson wrote many good articles for "The Amateur Scientist" in Scientific American. I recall one that used a very sensitive electrometer ic to measure the earth's electric field, and I believe he talked about detecting ion storms. Those chips work down the the femptoamp range. Since the currents are so small, they are well below the noise level in the cs process and can have little effect. But I'll bet railroad tracks get interesting in a geostorm:) > Take care, Malcolm Thanks, Malcom. Best Regards, Mike Monett -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
