Here is a message from Al McWilliams who designed the McWilliams
magnetometer, a simple easy-to-build device used by amateurs for over 20
years to make recordings of magnetic storms that match those of professional
observatories. He mentions a web site where you can see that the 27 January
satellite reentry was recorded worldwide. You must act fast though. The
records last only 7 days on this site.

Hi Cap and All,
At this site: http://geomag.usgs.gov/wwwplots/plots.html one sees that at
least nine of the ground based geomagnetic observatories (Boulder, Guam,
Fredericksburg, San Juan, Newport, Honolulu, Tucson, Fresno, and Sitka)
clearly show the 1450UT event on 27 January 2000. This site only goes back
7 days so you have to view it immediately. My record shows no clear event
(just a small blip which could very well be noise).
Al
