When the eclipse happened in the UK in 1999 there was a call to listen to an AM station to see if the Appleton Heaviside layer reappeared quickly. As Radio 2 is on VHF/FM now the last bit probably irrelevant, but VHF is getting a lot of DX at the moment because of the weather. Great for DXers, crap for listeners.
