The atmospheric trajectories, velocities, brightnesses and orbits of double-station TV-meteors, 3 magnitudes fainter than those photographed by Super-Schmidt cameras are given. The beginning heights of A and C meteors found in photographic observations are compared with the TV-meteor data. The strongest component of the TV-meteors forms a natural continuation of the C1 group of the Super-Schmidt meteors. A new well populated C3 group with randomly-inclined short period orbits is revealed and its presence among the brighter meteors is investigated. A mass-selective evolution of C2-type orbits into C3-type orbits is consistent with the observations. A brief discussion of showers and associated orbits is given. Theoretical beginning heights are briefly mentioned.
