Nov 22 20915 Further experimentation update
This morning before dawn I switched from receiving WWV at 25 MHz from AM
to CW. CW produces meteor reflections as tones.
It looks like WWV broadcasting from Ft. Collins Colorado will be a very
fine meteor scatter transmitter source which many radio observers might
be able to get. Of course, everyone's observing conditions are site and
radio and distance specific so it may not work for everyone.
Here is one minute of audio recorded at 1246 UT Nov 22 2015. It shows a
nice dawn sporadic stream of meteor reflections.

20.000 MHz WWV also works through the night. Still more experimentation
to do at this frequency.
Clear skies to all,
