[IRCA] Upcoming solar eclipse

For those of you with SDR's, and located along its path ( http://www.eclipse2017.org/2017/path_through_the_US.htm) the solar eclipse over North American which is to occur on August 21 will present a most interesting possibility.


I remember DX'ing during a solar eclipse back in the 1970's, and I experienced stations on the path 'ahead' of me coming in as if it were SS/SR propagation.


Now, with SDR's, it will be possible to record the entire band for the duration of the eclipse, or at least for that portion where effects will be noticeable in any particular area.


Alas, many of us in the Northeast, Southwest and North Central US won't be close enough to the path to experience the full effects.
