  Building a ferrite-rod antenna
Posted by: Kellogs - 2025-04-08, 19:57 - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (1)

Dear Friends,

I recently purchased a system mini (received but not yet assembled) and I am looking for information on building an antenna. The most simple seems to be a ferrite-rod antenna. Where can I purchase such an antenna or build my own? I found this website https://www.ferrite-rod-antennas.de/ and contacted the owner.

Kind regards,
Kellogs

Hi to you all.
how do I reset my login credentials in the web-interface or is a factory reset the only option. I've searched the forum for an answer but didn't find any, sorry if I have overlooked any post which might have answered my question. I'm running Station 977 FW 10.1RED 10.4/12.3
Best regards,

  Blue Mini
Posted by: Marcel_1 - 2025-03-30, 17:22 - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (1)

Hello,

I have entered the email address on the cover_your_area page.
I was informed that the email address is stored on the server.
I can also see the order list.

How can I find out whether hardware is currently available and how can I buy it?

Answers in German are possible.

Thank you very much!

  How to order system blue-basic?
Posted by: Kellogs - 2025-03-26, 17:09 - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (3)

Dear all,

How to order a system blue basic? I registered several years ago and again last week.

I just checked the cover your area page, but it does not display my status.
The messages printed is "The following information is stored at our server: E-mail: aa@aa.com, Country: France".

Does it mean it is okay for me to order?
How to order?

Also, my account is still restricted. Could you lift restriction so I can buy the last system red that is available for sale. I cannot communicate using the forum. It has durated several years, could you lift the ban.

Kind regards,
Kellogs

  Lightning Location Logic Question
Posted by: DrFX - 2025-03-11, 04:03 - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (1)


  1.  When lightning strikes, and many detectors pick it up, is there a max # of stations that the server will use data from to calculate the location?

  2.   I've heard that a station can detect lightning close by, and then I heard the system will not use lightning data for a strike near by, and instead use data from stations hundreds of miles away?
       2.a If you look at the attached station list, it shows stations sorted by closet to furthest for North America, most of them only show lightning hundreds of miles away? Is it possible for the server/station to detect lightning striking near the station?


   

I'm hoping someone can provide some insight.




Thank you in advanced.

  9.4 Blue 19.3 Board Can't update firmware
Posted by: ni5f - 2025-03-10, 15:41 - Forum: Hardware, Software, Lightning Physics - Replies (6)

User: 1667, Station : 2056 
Device says that I need to upgrade old firmware 9.4 on my 19.3 board. I downloaded 10.1 but don't know how to transfer the firmware to the device. The only access I have is via ethernet port and the IP address. The local webpage asks me my login name and password; I enter both and it lets me in to view. But that is as far as I can figure. Can anyone help?

Hi,

Does anyone have recommendations of some pre-built housing I can get for the latest system blue basic? Just purchased.

Also what's the best antenna setup for System Blue Basic? Is there any that I can buy? Are loop antennas the best?

Question Data for master's thesis
Posted by: AlMu - 2025-03-06, 16:58 - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (2)

Hey dear   Lightning ortung community,

For my master's thesis in Mathematics/Machine Learning, I would like to enrich historical weather data with lightning data to train a model that can predict severe weather and storm tracks for a region in Bavaria.
Is there any way to access the data without being a contributor? Unfortunately, due to financial, residential, and time constraints, this is not possible for me right now... 

I would greatly appreciate any response or help!

Thanks alot!  Rolleyes
