There is (was?) a company out of Hastings Minnesota (Home of Gumby) that was
working on technology that pinpoints gunfire direction. The thing about this
technology was, it worked, and was pretty much off the shelf electronics -
Newspapers and TV had reports on the company and their product. This was
more than 5 years ago. And yes, two laptop units could triangulate a pretty
good fix.

Last night I canceled a flight for a (for me) unique reason: the tower
was warning departing aircraft that FBO personnel had heard several
bursts of gunfire coinciding with departing flights passing over the
neighborhood off rwy 14.

The tower called the police but, as of late last night, no perp's had
been located.
