Hi Karl

The Belgian BRAMS network (http://brams.aeronomie.be/) is recording 
radio pings 24/7.

So do I also, here near Paris, recording the BRAMS 49 MHz beacon meteor 
pings, but recording also at the same time the german VLF transmitter 
DHO38 signal, to search for any VLF propagation disturbances which could 
be triggered by meteors.
The price to get access to my precious data is one pint of ale, as usual 
(a British pint, not a US pint which is 20% smaller).
