The recent Kwajalein radar backscatter observations of 11-cm irregularities at high altitudes (~500 km) during equatorial spread F are explained in terms of the kinetic lower-hybrid-drift instability. The absence of radar backscatter from 11-cm irregularities at lower altitudes (~240 km) is attributed to the stabilizing influence of elctron-neutral collisions.
