(meteorobs) Big enhancement on 55MHz

[Paul Goelz]

For anyone wanting to check out meteor returns on the old analog TV 
channel 2 frequencies, 55MHz is currently (2250 UTC June 19) 
extremely enhanced here in the metro Detroit area.

Where I usually see two (one very weak) stations on Ch2c, I currently 
see five.

Ch2a is a total mishmash.  Looks like five as well, plus the CW 
carrier from the local cable outgress.

Ch2a shows four or more... hard to separate out the carriers from the 
sidebands.

Many of the enhanced carriers shows few if any meteors, probably due 
to geometry or perhaps they are more than one hop.  But your geometry 
might be different.

6M (ham) seems enhanced to the south, so maybe you southerners can 
temporarily get some meteors?
