Dunno why I didn't think to capture some aprs.fi details of my #EclipseTrip during and immediately after. But it dawned on me this morning.

It's interesting to see the gaps. Places I know I went, but there's no red dot.

I couldn't hear a thing. But then, you hadn't asked me that question before I did my test.

I will test again tomorrow, with that in mind. Compare the noise floor on a few bands while the PS is plugged into household vs EGO powerbank. That'll be a good thing to know.

Testing that will be better done when I'm at a rural HipCamp cabin many miles from the nearest neighbor. That happens next Sunday night. #EclipseTrip

Good deal on a bundle of 4 HamSticks... at #GigaParts

But do they have the tri-magnet mag mount I'll need for running a HamStick on the roof of the Tahoe at 80MPH?

No, they do not. In fact they say they ain't even gonna backorder 'em. Dammit.

OK, so go to #DxEngineering to see if they've got the triple-mag-mount. Yes, they do.

But do they have a bundle of 4 #HamSticks ? No, they do not.

I swear, sometimes you pricks are in cahoots.

Preparing for the #EclipseTrip is getting to me.
