The UK Meteor Beacon project is now in its second phase, and both phases have been supported by the RSGB Legacy Fund.
At the RSGB 2023 Convention, Brian Coleman, G4NNS outlined the plan for the second phase. A network of receivers will be developed, streaming their data via a central server for detailed study of individual meteor events. This is a co-operation between the ‘worlds’ of amateur radio and astronomy.
You can now watch Brian’s presentation on the RSGB YouTube channel.
The RSGB Legacy Fund supports a wide range of amateur radio projects. You can find out more and download an application form on the RSGB website.
