A 100 W, 0.1A electron gun was used in DC and pulsed modes in a series of vehicle charging and wave stimulation observations on a space shuttle. The results show that strong wave-electron scattering is present in most gun operations. It was possible to stimulate intense plasma waves in the ELF, VLF and HF frequency bands.
