Dear Fellow Observers,
I uploaded some files from my observations of the (partial) solar eclipse:

Apart from my old single channel receiver for 75 KHz I'm running a
software defined receiver based on a soundcard from M-Audio ("Audiophile
192"), running at 192 KHz of sampling rate. Antenna is a 20cm ferrite
loop stick with a two-stage amplifier in front of the line input of the
soundcard.
And there is a quick and dirty animation, shot from a lighthouse-top
here at the Kiel Fjord:
