SelectAnswer
AAt darkness solar absorption drops greatly while atmospheric ionization remains steady
BAt midday the sun, being directly overhead, superheats the ionosphere causing increased refraction of radio waves
CAt twilight solar absorption drops greatly while atmospheric ionization is not weakened enough to reduce the MUF
DAt mid afternoon the sun heats the ionosphere, increasing radio wave refraction and the MUF
