Hello to all. Unfortunately due to health problems I had to abandon the blue system for a while. Now I'm trying to start over but I can not remember any more user and password to access his web page. Can someone help me reset to log in again? What are user and factory password?

Hello,

I have made some (maybe) interesting maps and animation from Blitzortung.org data during year 2017 over Europe.

First is timelapse movie of 90 minute strikes   history with 10 minute step.

Second is GIF animation of monthly merged lightning strikes into European map.

Enjoy

Happy New Year all!!

Is it possible to select more then 2 days worth of data in the historical data?? A month at a time would be nice??

Regards

Mark

Hello
since a few hours my blue sys can't find any satellites. The blue GPS indicator on the frontside illuminates for approx. 1 sec, the pauses for approx. 2 sec. 
No PPS pulse. Antenna device is MEDIATEK. Any hints what is going wrong here? Had the same troubles already some weeks ago but they disappeared suddenly.
Cheers
Hans

Hey there,

Reasonably new participant to the blitzortung project here. 
I've got two stations. one that I will be bringing to Nepal if all goes well; the other will stay hosted in Amsterdam.

From tomorrow till the beginning of the 31st of Dec, i'll be at 34C3, the yearly conference of the CCC germany that'll be in Leipzig this year.

If there's anyone that'd want to meet up there; come look for 'Justa' somewhere around the HSNL/Techinc assemblies.
I'm also bringing a fridge with home-brewed beer; so that might also be an extra incentive to come meet up.

You can also , of course, drop a private message here; i'll try to look from time to time.

Perhaps see some (other) participants or tech-heads of the project, there.

This is a two-part question:

•  Why do so many projects that I see are using basic linear transformer power supplies (i.e., mains->transformer->rectifier->regulator) but not have any kind of input protection beyond a fuse? Is a fuse really going to help prevent damage to the circuit? Are they assuming that it's going to be plugged into a surge protector, so it doesn't need to worry about excessive input voltage?
  
•  If it is a good idea to include more protection in a simple power supply, is a simple crowbar-type arrangement like this appropriate?
  

Hi I need to reset my password on Blitzortung.org but cannot find how to reset/request a new password.

and gives no clue as to how to reset the password.

Hello, 

Does any one know the range (km) that Electric signal can detect? My guess is that Magnetic antenna (H) detects strikes in longer distances than Electric antenna. I see more detections (signals and  effectivity L) with ferrite antennal than E antenna.  

I am also thinking of adding a filter to Magnetic channel. Of the 3 H field channels, which would work best?

Hello, 
What do Effectivity S and Effectivity M represent?

I know effective L represent the number of received signals used to calculate strike position with distance of up to 5000km.

Hello, 
I am in Kenya. Do we have a way of updating my region here to Africa?
