摘要：

The use of a pencil-beam VHF radar to detect low-level activity from weak meteor showers is illustrated. Critical to this technique is a knowledge of the radar response function (a measure of its sensitivity variation with the radiant celestial coordinates). Our observations indicate that the June Librid shower, which had not been observed since 1937, was active in 1992.
