摘要：

We describe some of the highlights of the incoherent scatter observations made at Jicamarca in the 1960s. Some of the observations were then and are still now unique and worthy of further study. Of particular note are (1) a long series of electron density measurements extending to altitudes as high as 10,000 km on a few occasions, (2) density and temperature observations during a total solar eclipse, (3) temperature and composition measurements extending past the O+-H+ transition region, and (4) observations of the ion gyro resonance effect for protons.
