Meteor detection by radio

Meteors vary enormously in size, depending on the original meteoroid (the solid body before it enters Earth’s atmosphere). Here’s a

This is very relevant for modern meteor detection, since many traditional continuous-wave (CW) beacons have gone silent while digital TV (DTV) and FM broadcast

Radio meteor scatter is a radio propagation phenomenon where radio waves are reflected or scattered by the ionized trails left behind by

In meteor scatter, the head echo is the radar reflection from the plasma region immediately surrounding the meteoroid itself as it travels

Here’s a breakdown of software options (and their pros/cons) for meteor-scatter / forward-scatter / meteor radio detection, along with which

Here are practical, build-ready Moxon dimensions for the two bands. I’m using standard Moxon A-E notation (A = overall width;
