Here is the all-sky capture with radio scatter. Luckily clouds were
thin enough at the time to get nine seconds of visibility. But I did not

Radio-wise, as is often the case, the largest fireballs can make the
least intense forward scatter reflections.

It looks like there are accumulating reports of this fireball at the AMS
site:
