Scientific paper

Results presented to the SPA Meteor Section from the second quarter of 2004 are analyzed and discussed, along with some relevant items that generated correspondence from Society members and others. A very approximate radio confirmation was possible of a Lyrid peak in the early hours UT of April 22, before the anticipated ideal maximum time, along with an eta Aquarid peak around May 5. Some notes are given on a brilliant fireball over the Franco-Belgian border at 21h57m +- 1m UT on May 20, together with an unusual fireball-like, though actually non-meteoric, event or events over or near Spain and Portugal in the late evening hours UT of June 1/2, plus a meteorite fall in Auckland, New Zealand, on June 11, reported as hot to the touch on arrival. Maxima from the June daytime streams were recorded by radio on June 6, 8 and 10-12, much as found in the Forward Scatter Meteor Year analyses previously. The June Booetid visual outburst on June 23 was not detected in the radio results, although moderate maxima probably due to the beta Taurids were, on June 22, 25 and 28, again largely as recorded before.
