Lscott Posted April 8 Report Posted April 8 I think today will be one where Ham, GMRS and CB radio is going to get a bit of a workout. People driving around trying to beat out the traffic to find a good location to view the eclipse. With the weather forecast being crummy in some areas getting up to date viewing conditions is going to cause a lot of last minute scrambling to get to a better site. WRXB215 and SteveShannon 2 Quote
tweiss3 Posted April 8 Report Posted April 8 Yea, plenty of traffic today on a set of ham repeaters that are not normally linked. Lscott 1 Quote
WRKC935 Posted April 9 Report Posted April 9 I had grand plans to operate at the tower site, then view the eclipse. Never got to the tower site today at all. Quote
WSCF738 Posted April 10 Report Posted April 10 My radios when haywire. I live outside of Austin and the lights on the radios just kept flashing. Couldn't turn the radios on or off and there was nothing on the display. After the eclipse passed everything returned to normal. Lscott 1 Quote
