Observer's comments:   Two visual captures this night, possibly from the same radiant.
Update:   I added a skymap overlay at the bottom of this page for the two meteors in question.

Fireball 1  :   July 6, 2008    0945 UT  ( 3:45 am MDT )

Radio spectrogram of the time of the above meteor.  61.250 MHz reception above white line, 83.250 MHz below white line.
Meteor above occurs at the very end of the 0945 UT minute and goes into the 0946 UT minute. All other dots are space dust particles.






Fireball 2  :   July 6, 2008    1003 UT  ( 4:03 am MDT )

Movie 1 :  Sentinel camera capture, without sound:

Movie 2 :  Ashcraft's forward scatter system, video and sound:
Very long radio reflection. NOTE: Large video file...For researchers. Full duration of radio reflection
FB20080706_1004ut_Ashcraft.mp4     2 minutes 4 seconds  14.6 MB

Radio spectrogram of the time of the above meteor.  61.250 MHz reception above white line, 83.250 MHz below white line.
Meteor above occurs during the 1003 UT minute and goes into the 1004 UT minute. All other dots are space dust particles.




Below is an all sky map for the times of the two meteors.  It is difficult to plot radiants from a single camera view so this will
 have to serve as a rough approximation until more data appears.
