Red sprite at June 16, 2010, 0817:48 UTC over a lightning storm cell near Dalhart, Texas.

I was video monitoring and recording at the radio frequencies of 21.1 MHz and VLF/ELF. You can listen to the audio in stereo in the movie below. Interestingly, the sprite generated emission at VLF/ELF but did not emit noticeably at 21.1 MHz where other lightning can be heard in the clip. Note: At the end of the movie below I magnified and isolated the sprite and repeated it three times.

More specimen Transient Luminous Events coming as they are processed.
