On Monday 8 April 2024, a total solar eclipse gripped North America as radio amateurs worldwide looked on to see its effect on the ionosphere.
This included RSGB Propagation Studies Committee (PSC) associate member Gwyn Griffiths, G3ZIL, who was interviewed by BBC news on the topic.
The article, which was shared across the world, looked at some of the scientific experiments that took place during the eclipse.
