William, I don't see Old Westbury University on the IDD rtstats(1) webpage <http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/cgi-bin/rtstats/siteindex>. Are you sure they're on the IDD? Have you contacted them? The IDD transmits near realtime lightning data: it doesn't transmit archived lightning data. For that you would have to go elsewhere. Does this make a difference? > The Old Westbury University is near me. However, would I need this connection > to collect archived lightning data?
