Have I noticed a parabolic curve been introduced for tracking lines for strikes on the BO live overview map, looks cool...... That curve appearing on the longer distant tracks (my longest distance being 6100 kilometres, in Oceania our averages being in the 3000 + range) which would, I imagine, reflect the curvature of the earth.
I run station 1187. Is it common that my station is not used for very close strikes? I don't see my station used for strikes occurring closer than 200km when viewing http://www.lightningmaps.org/realtime? map.

that's possible.. it may be that you have too much gain, low threshold, and are sending poor data.. If your're aiming at 'distance', the near strikes may be 'distorted'... it's also possible to go into brief interference mode with near cell activity.... Remember, this is a 'network'... no station really stands alone...
