My Meteor Observations for Aug 1/2, 1997

Starting my observations at 7h04 UT I recorded meteor data for the next 4.5
hours under clear skies with Limiting Magnitudes near 5.9 all morning. I saw
a total of 74 meteors...noticeably less than the previous nights. Perseid
activity is about the same compared to the last 3 or 4 nights. The brightest
meteors were a mix bag of four -1's. The shower breakdown is as follows:

S. Delta Aquarid = 17
N. Delta Aquarids= 4
S. Iota Aquarids = 0
Perseids = 16
Alpha Capricornids = 9
Kappa Cygnids = 0
Sporadics = 28
Total = 74

Hourly breakdowns:

7h04-8h06 UT= 2SDA, 2NDA, 3PER, 2CAP, 0PAU, 1 Spor
Teff= 1 hour
8h06-9h09 UT= 1SDA, 1NDA, 1PER, 3CAP, 1PAU, 8 spor
Teff= 1 hour
9h09-10h12UT= 7SDA, 1NDA, 9PER, 2CAP, 2PAU, 9 Spor
Teff= 1 hour
10h12-11h16 UT= 6SDA, 0 NDA, 3PER, 2CAP, 0 PAU, 8 Spor
Teff= 1 hour
11h16-11h41 UT = 0.42 hours
