Brian,
you are right, the signals go in saturation for these strokes, but these were actually the strongest signals I have seen so far, so I copied the signal traces. I am just experimenting in order to see if and how I can get also polarity information from strokes over the ocean (which is supposed to be difficult or impossible), but yes, I could reduced the gain of the H channels. Coming back to useful plots we would like to have: a histogram of maximum signal strength, both for signals sent and for signals used in strokes would make it easy to spot such situations: these would just go into the "overflow" bin. So far, I have to look at the list of strokes in order to find out if the amplification and thresholds are OK. Such histograms are standard in all situations where one has to adjust such parameters and I am sorely missing these here!
