An overview of the radio observations during February 2019 is given.

 

The graphs show both the daily totals (Figure 1) and the hourly numbers (Figure 2) of “all” reflections counted automatically, and of manually counted “overdense” reflections and overdense reflections longer than 10 seconds, as observed here at Kampenhout (BE) on the frequency of our VVS-beacon (49.99 MHz) during the month of February 2019.

The hourly numbers are weighted averages derived from:

N(h) = n(h-1)/4 + n(h)/2 + n(h+1)/4

As expected the meteor activity was fairly calm during this month. No echoes longer than 1 minute were observed.

There were few local interferences, no registered “sporadic E” (Es) nor lightning activity.
