Hi

My old laptop I had setup up for radio meteor observing didn't survive a 
thunderstorm a few years ago but the mention of Radio-Sky pipe recently 
rekindled interest for the Perseids.

I fed the output of the Space Radar being broadcast via 
http://spaceweatherradio.com/  into Radio-Sky pipe  using the soundcard and 
with a bit of fiddling I'm getting nice peaks as the meteors are being 
detected.

I'm in Australia so we don't really get a lot from the Perseids and it's 
been raining a bit too.

Anyway, a bit of fun and it works!  ...and I don't have to get up in the 
early hours of the morning!

thanks
Bruce
