	Does anyone out in Netland know how the StormScope avionics
system works. I have flown a small aircraft with one, and it gives
a radar-like PPI display that shows storm cells and, purportedly,
non-precipitating turbulance areas. However, it is not radar and
is apparently completely passive. I am most curious about the
principles of operation and how good it is.
