interference distorting data for meteor reflection studies.

March is the worst month for meteorscattering, as there are no good
showers availble on the northern hemisphere and the position of the
earth is least favorable in spring to "collect" sporadic meteors.
The daily amount of reflections is usually at around 5000 to 6000
reflections/day in other times of the year and reaching 10000 to 20000
rates during major meteor showers.
