Abstract
Radio observations of the Lyrid meteor shower obtained by a forward scatter radio system (Bologna-Lecce) in 1994 are analysed and discussed. The shower maximum appeared at solar longitude 31.0°(1950.0) and a distinct displacement between the maxima of the short-duration (< 1s) and long-duration (≥ 1s) echoes is observed. The shower has displayed a high activity, but no exceptional burst similar to that one observed in 1982, was recorded. It has been shown that the shower activity continues down to the smallest particle size of which existence in a meteoroid stream means their recent origin.
