It's very, very, interesting!
It's many years that I search to confirm
a unknown meteor shower that I see the exact day
when was founded the I.M.O., the 6-7 October 1989,
and the shower it's the Cassiopeids of October
but for the bad weather I cannot to do this, only
one year I can saw other Cassiopeids,
I found in radio meteor data of IMO
trace of this new radiant in early October,
naturally nobody can to said what radiant it was.
The radiant in Cassiopea it's near position of
supernova of 1572 (the side with Alfa-Beta-Gamma
Cassiopea).
Best greetings.
