Summary Radio Meteor Observing Report for 2010 Fisher SLC Station
This chart graphically shows the hourly recorded rates of radio meteor reflections at a Salt Lake City station during 2010 at 55.250MHZ. The scale is red at a maximum of 1,000 counts per hour to blue at about 15 counts per hour. The maximum daily count was 2,400 on the 217th day of 2010.
My station went offline in February 2011 due to interference from newly reallocated digital TV frequencies. Local digital transmitters now makes a nice window shade grid through the middle of the meteor reflections that I capture off a Mexican TV station signal. I am currently exploring using the Air Force Space Surveillance emitter at Gila River, Arizona on 216.97MHZ as the new ``parasitic'' emissions source from which to record reflections. Hopefully, the station will be back up by the summer.
Clear Skies - Kurt
