I’m considering installing a new Blitzortung station in regional South Australia, a fair distance from the nearest currently active site. Before moving ahead, I’d like to ask whether there are specific spacing, terrain, or interference considerations I should be especially aware of to ensure the station meaningfully improves local detection quality rather than overlapping existing coverage.

Hi all,

I have just setup my new station #3242 and are having trouble linking my account to the forum.

Would I be able to get some help to link the accounts so that I can access the participant section of the forum.

Thanks in advance

Jamie

Hi,

Where do I configure the city and country settings on my receiver?

Thank you very much!

Hello,

I connected the 3224 receiver online a few days ago and everything was working perfectly until yesterday when it started having GPS problems.
I've tried configuring several speeds on the serial port and it's not working. My receiver is a Blue Basic PCB 22.x. Can anyone tell me what I can do? I'm thinking of buying another GPS antenna in case it's faulty, but I doubt it.

Thank you

Hi
New station 3211 is here and online. Could you please to upgrade the status to "participant"? Thank you

Hello everyone, 
I will buy a functional GPS device for the Green system or exchange the Red system 3233 for a functional Green system. Thank you in advance for the offer. 
Regards

I am eager to explore setting up a new station in South Australia, near Port Augusta. My proposed location is approximately 30 kilometers from a station that is inactive and has been for some time from what I can tell, and would help to improve the accuracy in my area as it is a purplish red at present.

It would seem the website has a major overhaul.   I can no longer connect to the web socket.   I used to parse out the web socket key from the js file.   \  Does anyone have any information to share on the subject?

Regards

Hello.

My name is Krzysztof. I am a software developer and a student at the Silesian University of Technology. For several years, I have been developing a system for detecting lightning strikes in long video recordings, as a tool to facilitate the work of storm chasers, researchers and software developers. This project has become the subject of my engineering thesis. As part of my master's thesis, which I am currently working on, I am creating a system that involves continuous detection of lightning strikes on video streams from cameras, which will allow for the approximation of the location of a lightning strike.

I wanted to ask if it is possible to obtain raw detection coordinates with timestamps in order to compare these results in my master's thesis.

I saw that on the Blitzortung website, you can only access raw data if you are a contributor, so unfortunately, I do not have access to this data (I was considering joining the project, but there are already detectors in my area, so I don't know if it makes sense). Unfortunately, the historical data I can obtain on LightningMaps is also in the form of a map (without the coordinates and timestamps I need).

Thank you in advance, and I look forward to your response or suggestions on where I could obtain such data.

Best regards, Krzysztof

Hello everyone, 
I managed to get the Green PCB 4 Version 3. 2008 system. Does anyone still have software that supports this PCB??? There are newer versions on the compendium page and it doesn't work for this PCB.......I am very grateful for any valuable advice.......regards Erik
