I have never heard meteors as they flash by, but one cold, crisp night in
the early 1960s the Fire Brigade (complete with rotating blue lights) called
at the farm next door. I went outside to see what was happening. There were
no streetlights in the village, no moon and no fire, so the only strong
light came from the fire appliances. Every time one of the lights pointed in
my direction there was a clicking sound. I wonder if this is a related
phenomenon?

This is one of the things we alerted people to on the home page at
lwca.org
before the Leonid shower. If there was sufficient field strength to
produce
sound by the mechanism hypothesized to explain the phenomenon, these
electrophonic meteors should have produced very strong noise bursts on
whistler receivers. Still no reports of such reception from this side of
the
pond, alas! Anyone on the other side encounter anything like it?
