A survey of results from joint campaigns of the Leonids observed in 1996 - 2000 by the BLM (Bologna-Lecce-Modra) forward scatter system is presented. Leonid radio observations were carried out about November 10 - 24 each year, along two baselines: Bologna-Lecce (Italy) and Bologna-Modra (Slovakia). Trends of long-duration echoes and their variations indicate a multiple peak activity which may be associated with a filamentary structure of the stream. The mass distribution exponent of the Leonid meteoroids in the period of the shower maximum shows significant changes throughout the 5-year observational period, with a higher representation of larger particles mainly in 1998. The observed results are consistent with those obtained by other techniques.
