(meteorobs) XIADA Nov. 16/17, 2001
Following please find a meteor observation report from Dan Xia. We were
here in Xinglong for 2 days and weather looks very good. Some observers
could get LM even higher than 7.0. I myself made an one hour observation
during the first night, but I have no time to extract it from computer
yet...
Clear skies, Jin
