Not sure about the 10M beacons, but all the 6M beacons I have heard 
continuously transmit Morse code (ie., they do not send a continuous 
carrier), so they are not the best choice for meteor detection.  They 
are also relatively low power... several orders of magnitude below 
the TV signals we have been using.
