A side-by-side performance evaluation of two lightning tracking systems was done at Kennedy Space Center, Florida during the period 1 June-13 July 1979. The competing systems were manufactured by Lightning Location and Protection Inc. (LLP) and by Atlantic Scientific Corp. (ASC). Although the ASC system satisfied a preliminary performance test, it was observed that the device required continuing modification by the manufacturer. The LLP system experienced two hardware failures during this period, but otherwise operated 24 hours daily in an automatic unattended data acquisition mode. Because of the continuing developmental effort required on the ASC device, it was determined that the operational evaluation of this system was premature. (Author)
