Another stream began near Amherst, OH  brought us to end of the day.

Starlink allowed testing of 1080P broadcasting today. Two different size displays also tested.

Covered  372 miles 598 km today rolling out of Illinois, across Indiana on into Ohio. Clocks ️ 3:05 hours on 11 hr, 4:00 hours on 14 hr, 57:52 hours on 70 hr,   5 minutes remaining before needing mandatory 30 minute break. BRS was wise to save  30 minutes of 70 hr clock.

Another good day for Big Rig Travels.
