radiant remains (or not?), but I don't know what to call
these meteors, so I'll stick to ANT

enumeration starts in the 20/02/2003 session
all coordinates in mm from the lower left corner of the map
velocity scale:
1 - very slow; 2 - slow; 3 - medium; 4 - fast; 5 - very fast
*2: 51&54 can be traced back to quite close to the CAP radiant,
but the velocity doesn't fit, and doesn't fit with ANT either
(which has a diffuse radiant near the CAP radiant)
Comments: Almost perfect conditions tonight, this is the best
lm I ever had on this observing site, I think.
Around 22:30 there was even a bit of a "show going on", so it
was nice (the sky alone would have been nice) although there
were no spectacular meteors. Unfortunately moon rose quickly
after 23:00 and made me stop.
Please note: d = degrees
