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

A fire early today has destroyed one of OVHcloud’s Strasbourg data centres and part of a second one, the French cloud provider’s CEO, Octave Klaba, wrote in a tweet. He confirmed that all the people working at the site were safe.
OVHcloud is the biggest European-based cloud services provider, competing against U.S. giants Amazon Web Services, Microsoft’s Azure and Google Cloud, which dominate the market.

Major issues with our adjunct, lightningmaps.org.
Info is LMO will be offline for several days.

BT servers seem ok at this Posting time.

Hallo Zusammen

Vor einigen Jahren hatte ich einmal das System Grey betrieben und damals mit einem KIT bestellt.
Ging alles ganz gut, doch durch mehrere Umzüge ging alles leider verloren. 

Nun muss ich von vorne beginnen und meine Löterfahrungen sind derzeit etwas eingeschränkt bis unmöglich. 
Daher suche ich nach einem möglichem komplett fertigem und einsatzbereitem System RED oder BLUE. 

Vielleicht kann mir hierbei jemand helfen oder hat eines abzugeben?
Bestellen geht derzeit ja leider nicht.

I was trying to "deep link" to a couple of lighting strikes on a particular day that likely happened to blow up a telephone line surge protector - and I find that the "Archive by day" selection in the "ar" and/or "as" URL parameters appear to be ignored?

This is easy to replicate; view a specific day (2020-10-30 was the day I'm interested in, for the greater Sydney region), copy and paste the URL, and you'll find the view resets to a 1hr realtime view. Tested on Firefox and Chrome, with the same behavior.

Hi

The component 403 or L403 has been detached due to shipping. the part was in the bag as it is close to the power input does the component have polarity?  Need to know before soldering back on. See the attached photor admin removed corrupted image data

Hi there.

just looking at the UK station list here:

https://www.blitzortung.org/en/station_l...t_rows=100

I noticed a number of stations are listed as UK Country but 2-4 times in different Regions. is this a known bug?

   

I'd like a progmatic way of finding out if my System BLUE is having issues.   Such as a fault, or GPS not working.

Is there a way to query the device for status so I could generate an e-mail from a script?

Before I go and start parsing the HTML, is there an easier way?

Thanks.

Jeff

Has anyone tried powering a System BLUE via a POE (802.3af or 802.3at) splitter?

Since I have a POE capable switching, this seems like a good option to simplify the wiring.

Thanks.
