Abstract Whistler dispersion were measured for whistlers recorded on ISIS 2 passes over Quito, Ecuador. The most numerous whistlers were those with dispersions which increases from about 5 sec 1 2 at 30 ° magnetic latitude (Λ) to between 10 and 12 sec 1 2 at the magnetic equator. Less numerous were whistlers with dispersions which decreased from 25 sec 1 2 at 30° Λ and between 10 and 12 sec 1 2 at the equator. Whistler echoes were observed with dispersions ranging from about 40 sec 1 2 at 30° Λ to 30 sec 1 2 at the eqautor. It is argued that the measured dispersions indicate that the whistlers observed are unducted.
