Re: [IRCA] [mwcircle] Eclipse Monitoring

["steve@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mwcircle]" <mwcircle@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> (by way of Nick Hall-Patch <nhp@xxxxxxxx>)]

Solar eclipse in northern Europe today.   There was quite a bit of 
monitoring activity, looking for signal enhancement, and not just 
from medium wave DXers.   This from MW Circle list:



*****************

The results of all the RSGB experiments are coming in, but it will be 
days/weeks before all the WSPR and Reverse Beacon Network data can be analysed.

Nice to see a few schools getting involved with medium wave, and good 
to see they got an enhancement.

Early results have been posted at:

The consensus seems to be that everyone saw an enhancement on MW, 
which is good as otherwise I would have ended up with egg on my face!

For me, BBC Radio Scotland 810kHz improved suddenly within two 
minutes by 10dBm at 09:30, and was back down by 09:32. BBC Radio 
Wales 882kHz goes from -72dBm at 09:19 to -63dBm at 09:28, and back 
to -77dB by 09:34.


The enhancement was much more short-lived than I had thought it might be.
