Re: (meteorobs) Lynx activity Jan 04?
Mike,
Sirko's comments on plotting are "right on," to which I may only add
that the location you give, i.e., 8 - 9hr, is quite large. I hope to be
plotting by this time next year, so perhaps I will remember this possible
radiant. Perhaps even three or four of us could alternate on different
but consecutive dates and try to pin down a possible "peak" time for the
"Lynxids," if they exist!
