      The authors consider the scalar wave equation between the inner and the outer horizon in the Schwarzschild-de Sitter space-time. The wave equation is solved numerically and the variations of the field amplitude and the potentials are shown graphically for various regions between the horizons. For this purpose a new coordinate is introduced (as in the Schwarzschild case) and the wave equation is written in a form where the potential depends on the new coordinate. A simple approximation procedure is used in order to find invertible relations between the new coordinate and the radial coordinate. The two cases of close horizons (Nariai black hole) and widely separated horizons are discussed in detail.
