QSL.NET is still down.  But here is what should have been available (and 
hopefully will be available, with some details that haven't been uploaded 
yet, when the 2.4 GHz problem is resolved there).

It is almost time for the Leonids meteor shower.  Meteor storms are not 
expected this year (or any time in the near future).  However, it could 
still be a good shower - or rather, two good showers.  See <A

for some preliminary information.
