You don't really need a good receiver or a decent antenna to pick up
the noise from thunderstorm lightning. *Indeed I would not risk good
equipment for such a venture. *Any cheapo AM radio will get lots of
static. *Just pick a frequency.
Your question is somewhat ambiguous. *I assume you want to hear the
lightning and not literally pick up the strike by becoming a lightning
rod of sorts.
I hear storms 700 miles away on the HF bands. *I don't think I'm risking
anything.- Hide quoted text -

The O.P wasn't asking about storms 700 miles away. He wanted to "DX"
storms a couple of miles away.
