The new cutting edge technologies have opened the possibility of using digital spectrometers to probe the sky. With the sampling rate of $\sim$400 Msamples/s and the capability to digitally process data in real-time it is possible to get wideband spectra covering the frequencies in the range 0-200 MHz with the resolution of a few kHz. This presentation will show how such a spectrometer can be applied to the forward-scattering method of meteor detection.To search for other articles by the author(s) go to: http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abstract_service.html
