Just a short note to say I saw better activity from the Orionids on 
Oct 21/22. Skies LM=6.4, I saw 171 meteors (including 96 Orionids) in 
6 hours teff. My best hour had 24 Orionids! It was a good show as 
expected with this shower, but most were on the faint side. A few 
nice earthgrazers seen early at night. Some vivid coloured meteors 
from other sources. Taurids were steady all night. Full report a bit 
later.

I plan another full night on Oct 22/33. Be sure to get as dark a sky 
you can to catch the faint meteors!
