When short-skip Es reception occurs, i. e., under in band I, there is a greater possibility that the ionized Es cloud will be capable of reflecting a signal at a much higher frequency – i. e., a VHF band 3 channel – since a sharp reflection angle ( short skip ) favours low frequencies, a shallower reflection angle from the same ionized cloud will favour a higher frequency.
