group of 40 frequencies between 26.965 Mhz and 27.405 mhz. )

ELF---- ( Extremely Low Frequency (30 - 300 Hz) . )

Elliptical orbit---- ( Those orbits in which the satellite path describes an ellipse with the Earth atone focus. )

ELT---- ( Emergency locator transmitter. )

Emergency---- ( A situation where there is a danger to lives or property. )

Emergency Traffic---- ( Messages with life and death urgency or requests for medical help and supplies that leave an area shortly after an emergency. )

EMF---- ( Electromotive force is the term used to define the force of attraction between two points of different charge potential.Also called voltage. )

EMI---- ( Electron Magnetic Interference often called RFI (Radio-Frequency Interference. )

Emission---- ( Transmission of a signal. )

Emission mode---- ( The form of a radio emission, such as AM, FM, or single sideband. )

Emission Privilege---- ( Permission to use a particular emission type (such as Morse code or voice). )

Emission Types---- ( Term for the different modes authorized for use on the Amateur Radio bands. Examples are CW, SSB, RTTY and FM. )

Emitter---- ( One of the outer layers of a bipolar transistor, often the reference. )

EMP---- ( Electromagnetic pulse. )

Energy---- ( Capability of doing work. It is usually measured in electrical terms as the number of watts of power consumed during a specific period of time, such as watt-seconds or kilowatt-hours; The ability to do work; The ability to exert a force to move some object. )

Envelope-delay distortion---- ( In a complex waveform, unequal propagation delay for different frequency components. )

EOC---- ( Emergency operations center. )

Epoch---- ( The reference time at which a particuilar set of parameters describing satellite motion (see Keplerian elements) are defined. )

EQX---- ( The reference equator crossing of the ascending node of a satellite orbit, usually specified in UTC time and degrees of longitude of the crossing. )

E-Region---- ( The SECOND LOWEST ionospheric region, the E region exists only during the day. Under certain conditions, it may refract radio waves enough to return them to Earth. )

E.R.P.---- ( Effective radiated power. System power output after transmission-line losses and antenna gain (referenced to a dipole) are considered. )
