Hi Rainer,
Thanks for sharing your data. Looking good there.
Here are my data up until this evening (5th). Apparently the peak is due overnight here in the UK 5-6th. So far the sky is clear, so maybe I'll take a look and see if I can see anything for myself directly.
I'll update tomorrow night.

Re: Eta Aquarid meteor shower May 5
Just had a quick look at my data; can't really see a noticable peak in activity as of yet. Will have another look tomorrow to see what the coming night brings.

Re: Eta Aquarid meteor shower May 5
Had a look at the data again and did see a clear uptick in activity during the night. I guess we're a bit slow over here

Hi Jochen,

Re: Eta Aquarid meteor shower May 5
Finally catching up on this.
Here are my data, up to date as of 12th. I also detected a second wave on the 7th. I guess these 'clouds' of particles are quite heterogeneous, so we should expect a few sporadic concentrations at times during the meteor shower period (18th April to 27th May in this case).
