Forward Scatter Meteor Radar
 METEOR ECHOES : The US Air Force Space Surveillance Radar has been shut down, but we're still recording meteor echos. Radio engineer Stan Nelson uses a Yagi antenna in New Mexico to detect 54 MHz TV signals reflected from meteor trails. When a meteor passes over his observatory--ping!--there is an echo. It's the next best thing to a giant government radar! Click on the arrow for a brief introduction then you'll hear LIVE audio feed from NM. Enjoy! From: http://www.spaceweatherradio.com/
