<<I put my Strikefinder sensor under the right rear seat. That location
gave me the best opportunity to put in a good size ground plane. I had some
noise problems that I recently eliminated and am now waiting for some
weather to look at, but we don't get a lot of convective activity in
Southern California. I'm told that it should be OK there by the
manufacturer, but I haven't done any skin mapping to see if it's the best
place. I know that other builders have put theirs in the same place.

This might be a dumb question: Does it matter if the antenna is "upside
down?" Seems to me it would be easier to put a ground plane on the floor
and then put the antenna on top, inverted from the normal position. Or
would that reverse the field shown on the screen. I can see that
transponder antennas would like to look down, but maybe not the stormscope.
