    <description>
    The EISCAT UHF and VHF radar transmitters are located at
    Ramfjordmoen near Troms&#248;, Norway. The same site also hosts the
    EISCAT HF Heating facility and some of the UiT Arctic University
    of Norway observatory instruments, as well as several guest
    instruments. EISCAT also has remote receiver sites in Kiruna
    (Swedish Institute of Space Physics) and Sodankyl&#228; (Sodankyl&#228;
    Geophysical Observatory, University of Oulu), enabling tristatic
    vector measurements. The remote receivers were originally part of
    the UHF radar but were converted to receive the VHF frequency
    during 2012.
