  • E-Field PCB (you supply the enclosure and rod).
  • GPS Receiver. Magnetic base, outside rated with long cable.
  • 5V Power Supply

Photos available upon request.

Best Offer secures.

If no takers then it will go on Ebay after Christmas.

I will ship to most places with shipping at cost.  I am located in the UK.

Exclamation Curious phenomenon on browser: https://map.blitzortung.org/
Posted by: MTO-Mareuil - 2020-12-12, 11:18 - Forum: Website, Maps and Applications - Replies (1)

Hello everyone!

A curious phenomenon appears on my Chrome browser, each time I zoom in by pressing + or - on the site https://map.blitzortung.org/ it appears curious pixel which seems to move. Perfectly this is only displayed for a fraction of a second or it is displayed continuously (but very rare)
Is it a defect of my chrome browser or does someone else have the same problem?

may be a coded message from aliens. Big Grin Big Grin

  Piksekiirus ja väljamõeldis
Posted by: actiopabs94 - 2020-12-11, 08:24 - Forum: Non-English - Replies (1)

Olen lihtsalt segaduses pärast seda, kui kohtasin kedagi, kes üritas mulle Enelit (üks tükk) seletada.

Põhimõtteliselt oli idee, et kuna meie poolt välk pärineb tagasitulekust (mis tekitab välgu valguse), peab igaüks, kes reageerib piksenoolile, reageerima tagasituleku kiirusele (1/3 LS).

Mul on inimesi, kes ütlevad, et välgulappe ei saa enamasti tagasitulekuni mõõta, kuid miks see idee vale on?

Kas sellepärast, et tegelik välk pole sama kiirusega kui tagasitõmme?

Kui see nii on, siis miks ei saa lihtsalt öelda, et igaüks, kes reageerib välgule (mida me näeme), reageerib tagasilöögile?

  Free to loving UK home - two system blue digital filters
Posted by: CarlOrsborn - 2020-12-09, 22:52 - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (2)

I bought six of the System Blue digital filter chips from Ebay, but used only four of them.  LTC1569CS8-7 LTC1569-7 SOP-8.

I offer the remaining two free to a good UK home.  (I've nothing against the rest of the world, but I don't fancy fighting customs forms, etc.)

They were stupidly expensive (and not in stock) from normal UK component distributors, but cheap from Hong Kong.  The four I've used seem to work.

(Back when I worked for a UK chip manufacturing company, some of our chip batches that failed production test would sometimes turn up in Chinese-made products.)

I don't know how this forum supports messaging, but Gypsum@pobox.com should find me.
