dc.description.abstract	The forward scattering of radio signals from atmospheric meteors is a known technique used to detect meteor trails.This article outlines the project that used the forward-scattering technique to observe the 2015 August, September, and October meteor showers, as well as sporadic meteors, in the Southern Hemisphere. This project can easily be replicated in any part of the world and is a suitable, low-cost project designed for students who are interested in astronomy.	en
