Stormscope
Roland wrote On 11/18/05 16:27,:
Does anyone know how a stormscope is able to sense the distance to the lightning ... It counts the difference between the flash and the cracking sound. No, kidding, sorry. Lightning generates radio frequency energy, just like any electrical current does. So the location solution can be found just like they find a radio transmitter, by using directional antennas and paralax.
