(meteorobs) Fireball over New Mexico Nov 17 2015 (Nov 18 2015 UTC) - video/radio

[Thomas Ashcraft]

One more update:

I checked my decametric Jupiter radio telescope spectrograph and also 
see this fireball at 20 MHz and 25 MHz. I think that this radio 
telescope likely captured ionization scatter from the WWV time 
transmitters at those specific frequencies.

It was reported recently that the Long Wavelength Array was capturing 
meteors but I will look into seeing whether they are receiving direct 
emission of scatter emissions bouncing off transmitters.  I posted my 
spectrograms here:

Interesting in any case.  -  Thomas
