Abstract
The geminid meteor shower observed by a radio forward-scatter system o n the baseline Bologna-Lecce (Italy) in 1994 is discussed. The 1994 Ge minid shower exhibited a distinct maximum for overdense echoes of dura tion > 1 s, with the peak rate on December 13, 21-22 UT at solar longi tude 261.0 degrees (equinox 1950.0). The maxima of echoes of longer du ration (> 8 s and > 32 s) are shifted to solar longitude 261.3 degrees .
