Dallas had better than expected. We did have broken clouds but the cleared a few times to give us nice views. A lot of people did not come because forecast was bad but turned out pretty good. Got very dark! I was at UTD with a 1000+ students and SARA group a lot of wooing going on. Loud music that stopped during the eclipse a bit. I guess the radio station here thought silence was best. It was a magic moment.

Long day.

I made 47 CW QSO's on 40 and 20m with a portable setup and got lots of RBN spots from Prosper TX north of Dallas. I also ran FT8 remotely from NM.

We had some high cirrus but still had a great view with 3 minutes of totality.  As far as I can tell all the gear worked as expected.

I just saw it on TV and it looks like Dallas had a perfect view of the eclipse!

It must have been quite an experience!

We are in our hotel in Gatesville, TX, exactly in the middle of the (slightly revised) track. We spent last night near Ft Worth, where this afternoon it was almost completely clear. And it's mostly clear here now. But we know it won't stay that way. Anyway, it's now all in the hands of the eclipse gods.

I hope the weather will be nice and you'll be able to enjoy the beautiful show of the total eclipse!
