Help! I'm a "Meteorobs" newbie. Can you or someone detail/explain how
to read these observation measurements? I keep getting everyone's
e-mails showing these measures and I can't make heads or tails of them.
Thanks,
Matt

This night was clearer than the previous. Also in contrast to the
previous night, on January 4 the Quadrantids had almost dissapeared - I
saw only two faint meteors coming from the radiant. The following is
what I saw.
