Details:
My radio receiving equipment is picking up numerous echoes from the Geminids shower event taking place. Many are less than 30 seconds apart. Though it may be too cloudy at my locale, I have no problem seeing how active it is. I use the signal from distant TV station 100's of miles away, which reflects off the meteor's ionized trail as it burns up in the atmosphere. This ionized trail shows up as bright light streaks we see down here on Earth, it is also makes a great radio signal reflector.
