Good morning, Brian
Thank you for the latest update.
Yesterday I was able to collect lot of lighting strikes , because we had all day thunderstorm activity in my area.
First, I would start with the fact that was necessary to mod my WH57 sensor. I was noticed that it missing lot of strikes including the nearest ones.
I was not surprised to see that Ecowitt tried to correct the problem using additional capacitor in the receiver AMS AS3935 - L/C coil. Typical DIY sensor , as other Ecowitt stuff. So I replaced receiver coil and tuned capacitors with resonance meter as result - I got much reliable sensor. It no longer missing strikes , even I put the sensor sensitivity to "low".
In the template I got this data : So , lets say now it working pretty good, as I compared the Lighting data with blitzortung lighting source.
This morning I uploaded the latest template update and will wait for the next lighting activity.
Regards,
Victor
