(meteorobs) Audio specimens of Radio Leonids- 2001 added

[Thomas Ashcraft]

For the great cosmic data bank:
   
  I just added two .mp3 forward scatter sound files of the 2001 Leonid storm to the webpage below.  These are both half hour long files. One is of the second peak period 1800 UT to 1830 UT and the other is 0944 UT to 1015 UT which was near the first peak period. Note :  These sound files are very large....each one around 42 MB.

  They are kind esoteric but hopefully they will be of interest to specialists now and in the future.
   
  Clear skies,

  I recently gave a listen to my old forward scatter audio tapes of the Leonids in 1998 and 2001 and now I think they are pretty interesting. At the time of those storms, my concern was individual meteor counts and I had dismissed my recordings then because there were so many fireballs that the tapes saturated with long signal so that an individual count was impossible. But now I realize that this rare condition of supersaturation is possible data in and of itself and I believe the tapes hold some interesting information.
