Scientific paper

As part of a program aimed at deriving the true influx to the Earth of small meteoroids the authors have measured the height distribution of radio meteors to limiting magnitude +6 (mass ≡1.0 mg) at a frequency of 6 MHz for the combined Daytime Arietid and Zeta Perseid showers, and also for the Eta Aquarids; these showers have widely different velocities but no substantial dependence upon velocity is apparent. The distributions peak at ≡105 km, 10 km above the peak found using conventional VHF meteor radars.
