ARLA/CLUSTER: Radioamadores activos durante o eclipse solar nos EUA

Radio hams active for solar eclipse

*The Tribune* describes how amateur radio operators participated in the
solar eclipse from indoors

While most people ventured outside to watch Monday’s solar eclipse, a group
of local amateur or ham radio operators stayed indoors to listen to the
skies instead.

*Todd Baker W1TOD* and *Jack Lambert K9WZZ* set up their mobile radio
equipment inside the Jackson County Visitor Center in Seymour (Indiana) and
antennas outside to pick up signals and chatter from other radio operators
across the country.

It was their own unique version of a solar eclipse party. Early on, they
had already talked with operators in North Carolina and South Carolina.

Outside in the parking lot, *Nick Klinger KC9JOY* with Jackson County
Emergency Management Agency was busy setting up the county’s mobile
emergency command post. He also would be monitoring amateur radio
communications along with local emergency airwaves.
