Cool, how do you do the constellation overlay?

I had my full VLF-ELF and VHF forward scatter radio and optical array 
operating for the Eta Aquarid meteor shower last night. I was excited to 
see in my visual recordings that one fireball had a terminal burst and I 
hoped that the burst would have a synchronous "pop" in VLF-ELF.  The 
terminal burst did "pop" at VHF frequencies but I can't discern any 
obvious VLF-ELF emission.
