  Servers are down [fixed]
Posted by: Tobi - 2016-06-04, 18:32 - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (1)

While writing the text below, the issue has been fixed.

----

Same procedure as every year: Our main servers are down since 16:25 UTC due to problems with the hoster. We don't have any influence on that.

A temporary website for Lightningmaps has been created here: http://www2.lightningmaps.org
It show's experimental data only. No archives and no statistics are created.

There's already work in progress to add more redundancy. Some servers have already been moved to another hoster. For example, the temporary server from above is located in North America.

  Detector Toggle Not Showing Stations
Posted by: chevyman142000 - 2016-06-01, 04:23 - Forum: Website, Maps and Applications - Replies (8)

Just as the title says, when I toggle the detector button it is not showing the stations. I tried Chrome and Safari, didn't work in either browser. I didn't see another topic for this, wanted to let the dev's know.

  Order Question
Posted by: chevyman142000 - 2016-05-31, 17:49 - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (6)

Hello All - 

I was not sure where to post this, so I decided to put it here. I am very interested in this project. From what I can tell, it looks like there are only maybe 6 stations in my State (Wisconsin). My question is about the station setup. My plan is to order a system blue once they are in stock. My question is, what are the instructions like as far as putting the thing together? I am comfortable soldering, but I do not know if things need to be put in certain direction or not. Also, I don't fully understand what stuff comes with the kit and what stuff I need to order outside of the kit? I have read through the paperwork, but it is still not clear to me. I appreciate any help and completely understand that I am a noob to this.

Thanks in advance!
Jeff

Hä? It sounds what? If you prefer to use slang, I'll prefer to use Bavarian.

Bye,

When do the new blue owners gain access to the rest of the forums?  I am reading the manuals and have some questions that maybe answered there about some general things such as antennas, etc.

Best,

Jeff

  Blitzortung.org mobile map - time zones
Posted by: Andrew.Instone-Cowie - 2016-05-30, 13:03 - Forum: Website, Maps and Applications - Replies (1)

The time zone/DST is incorrectly displayed on the Blitzortung mobile map, but the numeric time is correct.

The real clock time is currently 14:00 BST (British Summer Time), but the time display at the top of the map says 14:00 GMT. (Now would be 13:00 GMT.)
