Since last year, we have made a lot of progress with the Personal Space Weather Network: we stood up the PSWS Network website, set up the software for about 30 Grape receivers collecting WWV data in Digital RF format, and successfully observed the annular eclipse in October 2023. We were able to use automated processes to upload, archive, cross-reference, and make spectrogram plots from all the stations, starting from early October and still running. More recently, we have worked with the west coast team headed up by Rob Robinett to add rx888 systems running the KA9Q software and provide uploading from numerous additional locations. We are now preparing for the April 2024 eclipse.
