Re: (meteorobs) one meteor (Houston Leonids)



I realize that I don't have the most sophisticated and expensive camera setup,
but I have checked star fields against a star atlas I have and  they compare
down to 7-8th magnitude stars.
Apparently most of the meteors in most storms are less than the brightness of
7th to 8th magnitude stars??  The another possible problem with my setup is
field of view.  I think it's around 4 degrees from looking at star charts.
