Hi,

As Koen already wrote, video data by a DMS team (Carl Joahnnink, Romke
Schievink, Rita Verhoef, Koen Miskotte) in Britzingen, southern Germany,
seem to confirm the peak at 21H UTC as seen in IMO visual data and Sirko
Molau's video data.

The raw video data corrected for radiant altitude only (assuming a constant
Lm and r-value) gives the following VZHR. Please note that this is not
equivalent to a ZHR as from visual observations. Please also note well the
error margins on these results!!! A diagram can be seen at
http://home.wanadoo.nl/marco.langbroek/vidZHR1.gif and then it will be clear
what I mean. Nevertheless, there is the suggestion of a peak. Finally,
please note that these were observations with very low radiant altitudes.

      UTC    VZHR      +/-
      20.20    47.0       33.2
      20.37    67.5       39.0
      20.53    107.9     48.3
      20.70    103.4     46.2
      20.87    118.9     48.5
      21.03    246.8     68.4
      21.20    54.6       31.5
      21.37    118.5     48.4
      21.53    33.4       23.6
      21.70    64.1       32.1
      21.87    76.9       34.4
      22.03    44.3       25.6
