"Hi,
we've recognized, that several stations could receive more good stroke signals, but the interference mode is limiting the rates. We want to avoid raising the original (hard coded) interference mode limits, but there's another solution now: Stations which are "not too bad", will get a higher limit by the remote control server. There's no exact definition of "not too bad", just don't send too much noise.
The new limits are 30 and 60 signals/s, the normal ones are 15 and 30 signals/s. You can check them at the bottom of the controllers status page. If your station got the higher limits, you can try to increase the gain values one or two steps.
This new behavior might increase stroke rates especially in America and Australia, as the lightning density in most areas there is much higher compared to boring Europe here Dodgy ."
