Partial solar eclipse propagation experiment, March = 20th 2015

The  Opera =  system is  well  suited to  the requirements   = and in liaison  with the  RSGB project  coordinator = , Steve G0KYA , Opera  mode  is  added  to =  the  list of  experiments.
 
User participation: A change from = the normal

Due to the =  short length of the  event, round 4  hours, to =  maximise  the  quantity and quality the of data =  produced  from the  477KHz and 1.8 MHz bands,

[Rx = Stations ,  Copy  and  paste  the  local =  decode  results to  text  file  as =  back up to  the  PSK-Map  data  base]
 
Three sections of the spectrum are of = particular interest:-
 
MF  =     477 KHz / OP8    Tx @ 100%  No =  CW ID
 
HF      =  1.8MHz  / OP4 ,  Tx @ 100%  No  CW ID
 
HF       3.5 MHz = / OP2  , 7 MHz / OP2    Normal  operations
 
One of the  main  areas of =  interest is the   North /  South  path =  straggling  the  line  of Totality, this =  being  roughly central to  a  1000  mile =  path from the  UK/EU to  Iceland.
 
MF: 477KHz =C2=91Totality Path=C2=92:= Halldor  TF3HZ   has undertaken to  establish a = web-linked Rx monitor   for  477KHz  OP8  and =  will  set up  in the  week  previous to =  the  event.
