These were the results of running #wspr on 15 meters before, during and after the #SolarEclipse2024 as per @theRSGB request. Hopefully my results will help with the 'big picture' when studying ionospheric propagation data. It was fun! #amateurradio #hamr
As per @theRSGB request to transmit & receive #wspr before, during and after #SolarEclipse2024, I'm active from Sun morning until Tues eve on 15 meters (21MHz). Running 5 Watts from my IC7300 into my inverted V 40 meter dipole. Results so far. #hamr #AmateurRadio #propagation
