On the theme of lightning

["Thomas Ashcraft" heliotown27]

On the theme of lightning :

Part of my nature recording is capturing earth and solar system 
phenomena using a variety of home-made instruments, some being 
non-microphonal. Here is a stereophonic radiotelescope recording of a 
strong lightning storm that gets momentarily overwhelmed by a powerful 
solar radio burst. 

Recorded using two dipole antennas as sensors connected to two modified 
shortwave radios tuned at slightly different frequencies to get a stereo 
field. Audio captured into a panasonic stereo VHS recorder.
