[NLRS] (Maybe an) Interesting science project---

[WA2VOI, Donn]

This popped up on https://spaceweather.com/ this morning.  For some of us it may be an 
interesting project (its aimed at ionospheric research, so mostly MF-HF propagation) or 
"science geeks" although there may be VHF uses also.

Over-all (general public-type report)

This has a good YouTube presentation of the over-all project, its aims, and (more or less) 
status as of early to mid-2020 (?). (It talks about 'prototypes' available in 'late' 
2020.)  (The presenter's "presence" is not to my liking - he just reads the slides --  but 
we all have seen worse!  Maybe he didn't have much choice.)

I know some of you (KC0P, W0ZQ? & ??) did some experimenting during the 2017 solar eclipse 
along the lines of this investigation.  They are looking for a significant number of 
stations world-wide and have interest to date mostly in NA and Europe.

It might be fun.
