Joe, how much fluctuation? RF at those freqs  mentioned (circa 850MHz) is
susceptible to atmospherics, ie absorption by precipitation, wet leaves,
passing bodies..are you noting momentary or consistent average
fluctuations? I am sure the ionosphere has nothing to do with it. Thanks
for the CC
cheers, Lyman
