Hi all,

Adam here from Sky News. We had a horrible incident last night in the UK where a boy was killed by a lightning strike. I wanted to ask about the accuracy of the mapping and how much margin of error there is likely to be? 

I am considering taking a screenshot to show lightning strikes happening in the area around the time of the incident.

Thanks for your help

Hi,

I have the same problem as Wilku and wheronet, DHCP keeps requesting a new lease every 4 or 5 minutes even though it connects.  Debug log also shows the same errors as Wilku.

system Blue FW9.2 PCB19.3

I can't go to this link

Cutty reply to Wheronet
See this thread   https://forum.blitzortung.org/showthread.php?tid=3438  should work for you now after upgrading to participant.

Can you fix it for me too please?

Robin

For the last few days my System Blue (FW 9.2PCB 19.5/H1/E1) has been flashing the network light intermittently and then totally rebooting.

THe logs for remote configuration status show :

URL: http://tracker.blitzortung.org/control/
Next Request: in 1m, 51s
Station Id: 2882
User Id: 2269
Requests: 101 with 209kB and 98 errors.


Am I doing something wrong, it's a fairly recent error (I think)?

Is there a newer firmware I should be using?

Edit: I see a similar issue on this locked post https://forum.blitzortung.org/showthread.php?tid=3443 , but the link to https://forum.blitzortung.org/showthread.php?tid=3438 doesn't work for me

Hi! Recently I have a problem with my station 2494. I have been hearing an error buzzer for two days at night. I'm trying to catch the logs. but i noticed i have network problems. the network LED is flashing from time to time. The log looks like this.

Has anyone encountered a similar problem?

Hi..This is a minor "problem", but I just noticed this. If I click on "Locates the user on the map" a blue dot comes on which is very close to my actual location. However the icon with my station number is not in the same place; sometimes close and other times a few miles away (and it changes). Is this normal?

Thanks, Steve

Hi there,

I have been having difficulty loading past lightning data on LightningMaps for at least over a month now, at the following link: https://www.lightningmaps.org/. Using this link, please try to select a day when lightning was known to occur in your area and see if anything appears (or if the correct amount of observed lightning appears like it should). At times, lightning dots would appear, but then some are noticeably missing or are only partially shown. In other cases, they would disappear randomly when zooming into the map.

In general, the dots that represent detected lightning strikes do not appear when clicking on the relevant day. I have tried different browsers and the problem persists, and I have tried on different computers. Could there be an internal problem? If so, would it be rectified soon? 

Thank you, and I look forward to your response concerning this issue. Any feedback would be so greatly appreciated!

good evening I have been using blitzortung storm maps for two years and finally decided to build my own lightning detection station. The problem is that I am only in the queue for the blue system until 1480, which means that in a few years I will receive the blue system. so I decided to undertake the construction of the red system.
Unfortunately I can't find the necessary software components anywhere, and especially the pcb file. is it possible to find these files somewhere, or are they not available?
Will it be a problem when registering a station that I am not in the Age of majority?
Thank you very much for your help! Have a nice evening Karol614

Anyone who removed their system blue from the aluminum case or has a spare and want to sell it?

I want to ask the community if there is a manual for build own high sensitive magnetic antennas.

I am from Austria and just working to create my self made "blue system" with KICAD (new layout, new BOM etc) because it is hard to get a kit to buy at these days......

On the german forum web site there are some docs they show the different types of antennas (E/H field) but no construction manual of the magnetic rod antenna (wire on ferrit in plastic pipe enclosure)

Maybe somebody can support

Hello Everyone

I am looking for a completly builded System Blue for registering and use here in Switzerland.
My knowledges about the Hardware to build is not so good. 

I would be very happy if here is anyone

Best Regards from Switzerland
