21 Aug 2017 Eclipse Day on MW

Definitely getting some enhancements. CHHA Canada booming in on 1610 with a huge signal, also the NJ TIS on 1710 with a good signal, and lots more X band activity.

Nothing of note here.  At best, WPHT 1210am (Philadelphia) seemed like it wanted to break through but never really did.

WLW AM 700 Cincinnati OH and WTVN AM 610 Columbus OH both stronger here in Michigan around time of maximum coverage (83% @ 1830Z) than usual during daytime.
Other than that, the dog started running around the house and barking

Late to the logging party here, but I heard 1670 KQMS Redding; then 1660 KBRE The Bear, Merced faded up; then 1110 KBND Bend OR and 1290 KUMA Pendleton OR; then I heard 1060 KSL Salt Lake City -- all on my Sangean PR-D5. All roughly about 400-500 miles or so distant, with KSL being farther away than that.

There were probably a few other DX stations, but I concentrated on the X band and some regional channels because I knew more what to expect on those channels.

1190 KEX Portland was in louder than usual, as was a 1600 kHz station near Bellingham WA -- but sometimes both of those stations come in during 10 in the morning so I didn't count them particularly as Solar Eclipse DX.

Was a fun way to "view" the eclipse... I used a paper plate with a hole in it to project the eclipse on a dark cardboard folder -- but DXing was more fun than that.
