[Lowfer] W3EEE Grabulator I

[PAUL DAULTON]

Garry, I like the  thunderstorm link you provided.
Of late I have been saving a lightning map with my captures when I do them
 live. I initially thought the 
Elektor SDR rec was immune to lightning based on a capture of Warren's XGJ
 signal on 3/22. There was a line
of t'storms from OKC to Desmoines at the time. Havent been able to  copy
 him or WEB since, so the jury is still out. 
I have used the SDR rec on ndb's with little desense during storms.
I think I remember a program called Rapdio that would save a screen on the
 internet. Some of the guys used it 
to save grabber pictures maybe that could be used in conjunction with the
 argo capture.
I tried for WEB about the time you mentioned 12am(0500 utc) nothing seen.
 T'storms all through the southern states
from MS to FL at that time. Tonight should be better.

Not seeing even a hint of MP at the moment on the Live Lowfers  
presentation, but do notice a lot of lightning activity in Eastern  
Pennsylvania via http://thunderstorm.vaisala.com/explorer.html. That  
must be why because MP at 372 miles is fine to NE Illinois (versus 311  
miles for the grabber). EAR at 358 miles is coming in fine too.
