Oooooo!   good point.

That might be the needle that bursts the whole balloon.  I don't know the
origin of all the electrical noise that's measured *between* the
resonances.  A big enough local source could drown out the worldwide
lightning signals.  But if lightning is like Wardenclyffe, then the big
local noise source would also be like Wardenclyffe, and we should be able
to build receivers to gather pulses of existing energy flux.  Run a big
coil with x-ray tubes shooting upwards?  See if it *receives* 7Hz power?
(Or just use a weather balloon lifting some #40 wire?)

Back in 1989 while at Climax Mine near Freemont Pass (11,318') Bob Golka rented a blimp-shaped helium balloon and sent it aloft carrying the end of a thin steel wire. I don't know what gauge wire was used, maybe somewhere around AWG 28-26, nor how high the balloon went. I built the motorized spooler that he used in the experiment, but was not present for the actual event. From a first-hand account by Jeff Hayes I understand that Bob received strong shocks from the wire when the balloon was up at altitude. I don't know what instrumentation, if any, was used. Perhaps Bob could provide the list with his recollection of this balloon experiment?
