Monday:<br>
<br>
1) Set your radio’s SYMBOL to the SUNNY symbol (\U). (for easy ID)<br>
<br>
2) Once on location, maintain your STATUS to report your WX. Something<br>
like: “Clouds 25% at 1015 EDT”<br>
<br>
3) See where everyone is on <a href="http://FINDU.COM" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">FINDU.COM</a>.<br>

<br>
4) Watch for Balloons on 144.39 or 144.34, and on<br>

<br>
5) Tune the HF bands, there is an ECLIPSE CONTEST going on… Google it?<br>
<br>
6) There are numerous other Ham experiments. see: <a href="http://HamSCI.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://HamSCI.org</a><br>
<br>
7) Do the AM radio experiment listed there by listening for the 13 clear<br>
channel AM radio stations below near the path of totality.<br>
<br>
8) CQ to others by sending a CQ via the CQSRVR. Send message to CQSRVR and<br>
begin text with CQ ECLIPSE… and your report. Update your CQ MSG every 30<br>
mins (that’s the limit). The ANSRVR des the same thing but has no time<br>
limit. Once you see other calls from their CQSRVR or ANSRVR messages, then<br>
you can message one-on-one to them by callsign.<br>
