[IRCA] Eclipse DX SDR Recordings

For anyone interested in DXing the MW band during the Solar Eclipse totality, I am offering WinRadio G33DDC recordings from Mt Juliet, TN. The 475 kHz to 1725 kHz recordings span from 12:12-12:41 PM and 12:57-2:55 PM. At this QTH the eclipse started at 11:59 AM, totality 1:27:37 - 1:30:03, and

[IRCA] Eclipse DX Report from Glenn Hauser

--- Begin Message --- We travel straight up US 81 from Enid to just south of Fairmont, Nebraska, right on the line of totality, and the closest part of it to Enid; joining what turn out to be hundreds of other cars parked along a side road, County road G (or was it H, two of my favorite

[IRCA] Eclipse DX - Cape Cod, MA

--- Begin Message --- In this area the eclipse maximum was approximately 65% around 2:50 p.m. EDT / 1850 UTC. The visual difference versus full daylight was just slight. I made MW Perseus captures of 2 to 4 min. duration at 15 minute intervals between 2 and 4 p.m. EDT (1800-2000 UTC).

[IRCA] Eclipse DX

We were at about 96% magnitude here in the Springfield area, and for about 15-20 minutes either side of the local 1:13pm maximum I did a manual bandscan (no SDR) and found conditions to be similar to what I'd get maybe an hour or two before LSS in November or December. Most all the skip

[IRCA] Eclipse DX in Alberta

Had to be at work during the eclipse, but the Perseus was busy recording. A quick check showed some interesting reception, with Sacramento doing well at 1730 UTC, with 1530 KFBK, 1380 KTKZ, and 1320 KIFM all loud and clear, as was Lodi's KCVR on 1570. Also noted KVGB from KS at 1800.

[IRCA] Eclipse DX

I didn't DX live but ran the Perseus for two hours starting 1:30 edt. We had 71% of the solar disk blocked, but it was hardly noticeable. I used the pinhole technique to track progress. My eyes have enough problems for me to consider looking through even quality lenses. Some clouds but mostly

[IRCA] Eclipse DX in Seattle

I had the SDR running during today's eclipse. Most of the time I was outside watching the event, but a subsequent check of the the files showed lots of sunset-like activity. The Portland area stations on 1550 and 1640 were the first to fade in at about 9:00. After that, things slowly

Re: [IRCA] ECLIPSE DX-ING

If there is one argument in favour of buying a SDR, this has to be it. Fine and dandy using a conventional receiver, and follow a handful of frequencies at best, and miss out on the eclipse, but why not enjoy the eclipse, record the MW spectrum and listen later to each frequency and watch it all

I've Dx'd during a 99% total eclipse -- It's amazing - the hair will stand up on the back of your neck as a moribund daytime MW band convulses and thrashes to life in the space of minutes. In decades of radio listening, there's nothing like it. Colin Newell - CoffeeCrew.com - VA7WWV -

I’m curious as to what DX-ers will be doing during the once-in-a-lifetime August eclipse. How about sharing your plans? I will have a D-Kaz oriented at 340 degrees from North-Central Minnesota, with an SDR recording 100 kHz to 1700 kHz. Cheers! Mark Durenberger, mobile
