Meteor echos

by niteowlinphoenix

Check SpaceWeather dot com for a link (periodically, when a meteor shower is active) to a ham radio site in Roswell, NM.

This site features a live internet audio feed of echos received from the USAF SPASUR xmitter in Lake Kickapoo, TX. Same thing works from the xmitter located at Gila River, AZ. Details about the SPASUR net here:

Note: it's about as exciting as watching (listening to) paint dry, hehe.

Should be some activity coming up in August during the Perseids meteor shower.
