To Dan Begley - close your eyes please :-) The stormscope detects electrical energy and I receive many complaints of false strikes. I would suggest running your BFG stormscope antenna to the back without mounting it. AFTER your aircraft is at a point of starting (engine and avionics in), make arrangements to have your fuselage skinmapped by an authorized BFG dealer. This needs to be done outside in an open area, not in the hanger! If you can't get one to do it for you, call me for assistance. The stormscope antenna placement is critical to avoid false strikes (1" one way or the other can make a big difference!). Good luck!
