* The Leonid Meteor Shower can leave numerous long, illuminated
trails
of Microscopic Particles behind them which act like the electrically
Charged Atoms of Earth's Ionosphere 30 Miles High that often reflect
Radio Signals for unusually long distances {DX}.
* ". . . Small Transistor Radio when the Meteor Trails were Thick
and picked up Voices and Music bouncing off the Dust from FM
Radio Stations as far off as St. Louis, nearly 1,000 miles away."
