August 21, 2017 is the day to be listening or recording vlf thru lower hf for unusual propagation. An eclipse can do funny things to propa.

I have a co-worker that worked in Casper, Wyoming for awhile before returning to Connecticut.  He told me that former work associates have invited him to stay with them in Casper to watch.  You cannot get a hotel room for hundreds of miles of Casper which should be ground zero of the eclipse.  He also said that the local Casper airport has already reached its limit of 200 private jets flying in for the event.

Wish I had the cash where I could take my private jet and go watch the eclipse in various places around the USA.
