The number of meteor bursts increased as the morning progressed. I probably should have recorded 0700-1200 instead of 0300-0800.
There were quite a few bursts which were just that little bit too weak to produce any RDS.
Of interest was a British English speaking station on 102.6 which came in immediately after the burst from YLE Radio Vega. There was a man speaking seriously, as if on BBC R4. He may have been talking about football, but I can't be sure. No BBC R4 transmitters or other similar BBC stations exist in the UK on 102.6, so this one is a mystery.
Good DX!
