Abstract
Radio echo observations were made of the Quadrantid meteor shower during early January 1966. The mean range and influx rate of meteors having a radio magnitude greater than + 7.5 was observed as a function of universal time. From this data the right ascension and declination (1950.0) were found to be 230.45 ± 0.18° and 47.0 ± 1.0° respectively.Keywords
