Lightning is a natural phenomenon where the charges generate due to cloud, air movement or other turbulence atmospheric condition. The lightning can occur between cloud to cloud, cloud to air and cloud to ground. The lightning strike gives a big impact in our daily life such as it will kill people and animal, interruption on transmission line; destroy the building and other electrical equipments. These problems can be managed by using Lightning Detection System and the location method to detect and locate the lightning strike. The concept of the detection method is based on the electric magnetic field. In this project, the multistation of VHF using Time-of-Arrival (TOA) method was designed. A NI-DAQ6212 was introduced and configures to connect the antennas to the personal computer for display and data storage by using LabVIEW. The azimuth and elevation angle was calculated by using formulae deduce from previous researcher. The output of this project would be displaying the azimuth and elevation angle as well as the distance of the lightning strike on computer whenever there is signal detected from the multi-station antennas ER -
