We present the results of some measurements of earth lighting made with the functional unit of the Galileo probe RF lighting experiment. The frequency range used is ~100 Hz - 100 kHz. The measurements were carried out in conjunction with simultaneous studies of lighting sources made by the University of Florida lighting research group. We find that the typical RF pulse duration times are
