Dear potential TOA Lightning detection participants,
welcome to Blitzortung.org. This is an automatically send email.
If you are interested in seting up an own detector, then please first
read carefully the documentations and visit at least one of the forums
linked at the page "Cover your Area". A documentation of System RED can
be found here
http://www.blitzortung.org/Documents/TO ... ng_RED.pdfSETTING UP A TOA LIGHTNING DETECTOR IST NOT PLUG-AND-PLAY!!!
You definitely need some experiences in soldering of elektronic
components. The kits contain, among other things, several SMD ICs with
an SOIC8 housing.

You can get from us either a basic set that only contains the parts that
are difficult to get on most countries or a complete set. We do not
offer already assembled systems but only kits.
The prices of the basic sets are
a.) Controller board PCB 10.4, GlobalTop PA6H GPS module, SMA connector,
and a network connector for = 31.50 Euro.
b.) H-Field Amplifier board PCB 12.3c, 4xMCP6S91, 2xMCP6292, 2xLMH664,
and a programmed ATmega8 microcontroller for = 18.50 Euro.
c.) E-Field Amplifier board PCB 13.1b, 4xMCP6S91, 1xMCP6292, 3xLMH664,
1xTLE2426a, and a programmed ATmega8 microcontroller for = 21.00 Euro.
d.) E-Field Pre-Amplifier board and an ADA4891 for together = 4.00 Euro.
The prices of the complete sets are
A.) Controller 10.4 kit = 74.00 Euro
B.) H-Field Amplifier 12.3c kit = 31.95 Euro
C.) E-Field Amplifier 13.1b kit = 37.50 Euro
D.) E-Field Pre-Amplifier 14.1b kit = 7.65 Euro
E.) two 20cm ferrite rod antennas = 45 Euro
(you also can build your own loop antennas)
F.) STM32F4DISCOVERY board = 20 Euro
(you also can get this board from
www.mouser.com world wide)
G.) external GPS antenna (SMA 5m) = 20 Euro
H.) amber display insted of a green display which is contained in set A
= 10 Euro
Additionally you need a 5 Volt USB power supply with mini USB plug and
some CAT network cable. The network cable is necessary to connect the
amplifier with the controller and to connect the controller with your
local area network.
The price for shipping varies between 7 and 40 Euro depending on the
weight of the order and the country you live.
From european Euro countries, I prefer money transfer to

Most people from germany order a+b+E and pay by money transfer, then the
price is
(31.50+18.50+45+7) = 102.00 Euro (7 Euro for shipping)
Most people from European countries order A+B+E+F+G and pay by PayPal,
then the price is
(74+31.95+45+20+20+17)*1.02 = 212.11 Euro (17 Euro for shipping)
Most people from USA order A+B and pay by PayPal, then the price is
(74+31.95+10)*1.04 = 120.59 Euro (10 Euro for shipping because of the
low weight).
