Problem: Very few strikes are displaying on the screen even though the
strike count is very high, when in Display Recent Activity or Display
Archived Data.
Reason:
You are trying to display strike data faster than your computer is capable, with Skip
Strikes turned on. In an attempt to keep up with the fast display rate the program is skipping over
strike data rather than displaying it. There are so many strikes to display that you are skipping
more strikes than you are displaying.
Solution:
Either slow down the playback rate (lower minutes/second rate) or turn off Skip
Strikes in the Configure Screen... menu.
Problem: Lightning strikes are being displayed but the direction is not
correct.
Reason:
Your antenna is not correctly oriented.
Solution:
Reorient the antenna so that the front faces north. See the Installing the Antenna
section of the manual for more information on antenna orientation and location.
