The high periods were single ones in between normal periods, see DRA-obs. 92- 30 J maxima's were at first dim; further to the north every second flash became brighter to mag 4 and some to mag 3 Greetings and clear skies Leo Barhorst Alkmaar The Netherlands 52.6333 North 4.7833 East 3 m ASL Member of Seesat-L ------------------------------------------------------------ Every day I wonder about the things I see in the (night)sky
