LIGHTNING DETECTION - Dave_VE3WI - 2023-07-14

Posted on Youtube by Bill, K2WH, who says "A very large amount of lightning was approaching my area so I disconnected my 80 meter dipole and inserted a large blue LED in the connector".

Think about all those pulses lighting up that LED, lighting up your rig instead.  And the storm was still miles away.
