| Abstract: | Characteristics of different types of meteor echoes observed during the 12-month period from Dec, 1974 to Nov. 1975 over the vhf forward scatter radio link between Waltair and Dehra Dun (distance of 1760 km) at 48.2 MHz are studied. The diurnal and seasonal variations observed in the radio meteor rates are discussed. The data of hourly meteor rates show maximum around 0600 hrs and minimum around 1800 hrs during a day following the expected theoretical variation. The diurnal ratios show a double minimum around the equinoxial months. The monthly mean hourly meteor rates show a maximum in October and minimum in February. |
