Just a short update post for now:
I'm very happy to announce that the Boltek LD—350 lightning detector is here!
I currently have it set up in it's second location. The 1st installation was not ideal, and was really just for some initial testing. It was very exciting to be setting up a professional lighting detection system for the 1st time!
A sincere thank you to Boltek Corporation, for the loan of the system. I'd originally requested the LD—250, but they did not have any refurbished/loaner units available to send me. In my upcoming review, I will also cover the LD—250, because I believe that many hobbyists will find it to be an affordable, plug-and-play solution.
Along with my excitement, were great expectations for this unit. I acquainted myself with this system, by reading the user manual days before it's arrival. It was a quick and easy installation, as expected. After it was up and running, I also envisioned very accurate results; as in very accurate plotting of lightning strikes, etc.
Here is a quick pic of the antenna, installed in a good location, facing North:
