This meteor shower is one of the most interesting showers from a radio amateur point of view. Swarm activity is lower compared to stronger swarms, but station activity is higher. Expeditions and World Championship races contribute to this. What should we prepare for?
Roj bude aktívny from December 6 to 19, 2005, with a predicted maximum on Wednesday, December 14 in the forenoon at 10.40 UT (+/- 6h), when the ZHR should reach the number 120. V šírke maxima sa však predpovede veľmi rozchádzajú, od pár po desiatky hodín.
The swarm consists of a number of small parts moving at a speed of 35 km/s. Best times for NE-SW connections: 4 to 7 and 20 to 24 UTC, E to W: none, NW to SE: 2 to 5 and 18 to 22 UTC, S to S: 18 to 23 and 2 to 7 UTC.
Lots of nice ones QSO!
