long distance wireless communication.Today, with the advances in digital communication technologies, there is renewed interest in usingHF as a means for long distance wireless communication both as a backup to satellites, and forpolar communication. Thus there is an interest for students and engineers to better understandionospheric propagation. A necessary component for increased understanding and insight is bymeans of empirical testing or in today’s education parlance, in order for one to really understandsky wave, one has to experience it.In subsequent sections of this paper, we will first review the basics of sky wave radio propagationincluding basic optic theory and how ionization in the E and F layers will deflect radio signals.We then

well prepared for its application in the modern physics class.2Last year at the ASEE annual conference Choi argued that the current modern physics coursesare woefully inadequate, “typical quantum physics courses we offer to engineering students arenot even adequate for the existing technologies that have brought us the Information Age, muchless in preparing our students for another big transformation we are currently witnessing.” 3 Weagree wholeheartedly and believe that by introducing elements of quantum computation into thecurriculum we can motivate students to learn something about quantum mechanics and provideenough background so that they have some ability to read the current literature. The ability toread any article about quantum
