Hi,Do any other regular video observers ever try spectroscopy?I’ve subitted a report to John and a note to Nick for inclusion as a short paper (or letter as it is indeed short!) in the Journal about a very unusual dual spectrum meteor.I’ve been using a Watec 902H2 Ultimate since 2008 (and a Watec 120N for ~18 months before that) for spectroscopy and have never seen this before. Just wondering if it truly unique or perhaps it’s been captured before.The de-interlaced video frame is here:http://userweb.eng.gla.ac.uk/william.ward/meteors/dualspec.jpgCheers,Bill.
