Meteorscatter (MS) on 2m

Started 1980 with 144 MHZ Meteorscatter (History).

 

Now i am using my FT847 or my SDR with the WSJT FSK441 Software.

Antenna is a 17 element Cushcraft 17B2.

 

There is also a new meteorscatter Software PSK2k from DJ5HG.

 

You can listen live to meteors on LIVEMETEORS.COM and you can view nice meteor images on SPACEWEATHER.COM.

The Meteor Radar (SGO) gives a good hint about the current meteor conditions.

This is an excellent meteor echo count:
