[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 reception seemed to be from the north, to about 300 or so miles out--stations I otherwise don't normally hear in daytime conditions. Strongest were things like WHO-1040, KFAB-1110, KTIC-840 West Point NE, and Chicagoland stations like WLS-890, WMVP-1000, and WVON-1690. Also KMOX-1120, normally very poor down here in SW MO during the day, was  doing well.  Certainly nothing "exotic", but interesting at 1 or 1:30pm in late August.
