(meteorobs) Radio Meteor Noise
Dear Net Members:
This past Sunday between 5 PM and 8 PM (local Arizona time) we experienced
continuous signals on all three of our FM band radio meteor receivers. We
suspect that a sporadic-e cloud was the culprit. Limited local reports
indicated noisy TV reception during this time as well as an amateur radio 2
meter DX contact of up to 1,500 miles. into the North East. One ham also
reported what he thought was an aurora scatter contact.
I am wondering if any radio meteor observers or amateur radio operators on
this net may have experienced unusual conditions during the above time in
North America. Any details would be appreciated. We are trying to pin down
the source of some atmospheric or ionospheric noise that we encounter from
time to time.
Does anyone know of a web site that tracks sporadic-e conditions over North
America?
