Howdy I'm glad y'all are enjoying the abstract. I've been looking forward to that one, and I'm actually working on the poster to go with it as I sit here. I'll add another one to Rob's list - Portales Valley shows up in data from multiple radars, although they are all at extended range and short on detail. I'm glad to see the run-down of y'all's contributions to this stuff as well. Rob didn't mention it but he's the one who first noticed the Park Forest radar detection, and I'm glad to see this sort of "stone soup" effort overall. The more meteorites we can get in out of the rain, the better.
