Comments:

Set up campsite well within the zone of totality. At 7,200 feet ASL on a ridge
with good view all around. 
 
Was in Medicine Bow National Forest in Grid DN72HF (Lat. Long. = 42.2367,
-105.358)
Used KX2 @ 10 watts into 30 foot vertical wire with 2 radials.

Hard to break pile ups with QRP - so almost all QSO's were result of CQ'ing -
which created lots of RBN spots for the data crunchers.

Anecdotally, I'd say 40 meters provided good mid-day opening along line of
totality.

Great experience - could see stars just before local noon!
