Felix and All.,

I meant to comment on this much sooner but never found the time. I too
recorded DCV for the longest time. If I recall correctly, my average DCV for
ten years of data for all meteors of all magnitudes was 26 degrees.
Naturally it was near zero for sixth magnitude meteors and worked its way
out beyond forty degrees for negative magnitude meteors.
