I am reacting to this mail, because we originally initiated this idea of
observation of this potential meteor (meteorite) stream. I think that
it is worth to do this.

The correct position of the geocentric radiant is:
RA = 192.3 deg, DE = 18.5 deg and Vg = 17.5 km/s
These are average values from Pribram and Neuschwanstein radiant
positions.

In addition to the regular photographic observations of bright meteors
by EN photographic cameras we plan to set a double station TV
observation from Ondrejov and Kunzak stations to cover also fainter
meteors.

I would very appreciate if anybody who will have some results (positive or
negative) could inform me.

Best regards and clear skies,

Pavel Spurny
