  How Accurate?

Three observed strokes from LMO, Aug 28, 2016
compared with Actual Observation.
[Image: 08-28-18-bt.jpg]
Note that the one stroke plotted as Experimental was intra-cloud anvil crawler
exactly over the station location. Other two marked within meters of C-G strike
point... (Physically observed) Other stroke not 'tagged' could not get physical
observation.
Also note that Frankfort A and Frankfort B (RED and BLUE) are both at the
approximate FRANKFORT B plot location in the image, not separated. Also
BLUE receiver working on extremely low gain setting E channel only during this period.

  Firmware issue (8.0 RED)
Posted by: Geewizard - 2016-08-26, 16:27 - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (5)

I just updated my RED firmware to 8.0 and now my system will not stay functional.  Rebooting helps but only for a while.

  Updated firmware to 8.0 (RED) and station stopped working properly
Posted by: Geewizard - 2016-08-26, 16:07 - Forum: Hardware, Software, Lightning Physics - Replies (2)

I updated to the latest non-beta firmware (8.0 RED) for my RED system yesterday and my station failed to function.  My station is showing no reception.  A reboot made it work again for a while but it still goes dead after a period of time.


I reflashed with 7.4 today and all is well.

Is there something I've missed in doing a firmware update?

  Interesting strikes in Canada where there's no storm!
Posted by: khartley - 2016-08-23, 22:59 - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (3)

Hi All,
Was watching the maps and saw some interesting strikes over Winnipeg Manitoba Canada today. There was no storm or lightning activity within 500+ km but there were a few "strikes" at 11:29, 11:34, and 11:39 AM CST. (16h zulu) 10 Stations recorded it.

Has anyone else seen anything like this where stations registered strikes with no lightning activity? Perhaps powerlines being inspected and arcing? would anything else cause a series of signals like this?

Thanks,
Keith

  Welches Netzteil für BLUE? Welche GPS-Antenne?
Posted by: robo - 2016-08-18, 15:01 - Forum: Non-English - Replies (4)

Hallo zusammen,

ich konnte jetzt endlich ein System BLUE bei Egon bestellen. :-)

Meine Fragen:

Braucht man die GPS-Antenne in jedem Fall oder nur bei Einbau des Boards in ein Gehäuse? Welche GPS-Antenne ist zu empfehlen?

Auch über die Empfehlung eines Netzteils würde ich mich freuen, denn es gab bei manchen Leuten ja schon Probleme mit schlechten Netzteilen. Womit habt ihr gute Erfahrungen gemacht?

Es wäre gut, wenn die Sachen bei amazon.de im Sortiment sind.

  what does preferentially mean?
Posted by: boergefischer - 2016-08-16, 16:27 - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (3)

When I re-enter my e-mail address to query my rank I get this: "Your request is ranked at position 955 of 1243"
But at the end it also says: "Your request will be treated preferentially, since you have allread submitted your email before July 5. 2016."

Can anybody explain what this mean?
Do I get treated ahead of the normal queue (of 1243 persons)?
And if that is the case, what is my real rank?

I no longer recall when I entered my e-mail address for the first time (before the ranking was introduced), but I do have a e-mail reply from Egon dated 10. August 2014 explaining that systems are sold out.
So after trying to order a system two years ago, I'm now number 955 in the queue?

Hallo,
habe heute die Station aufgebaut , alles läuft nach dem Webinterface gut, aber bei Blitzortung.org kommen keine Signale an.
Signale gehen raus soweit ich das beobachten kann.
Laut Webinterface bin ich auch auf dem Server Region 1 mit ip und port, kriege request zurück usw. scheint alles gut.
Gibs ein Problem bei Blitzortung.org ??
