This 'photo' I  found on LA Contest page.
It's tell all about the radio conditions this weekend.
Scandinavia was covered of aurora, eating almost
all of the radio reflections , Not a single North American
station was heard at my qth,  neither any JA'S.

Only qrv sunday,worked saturday,to tired for radio
when i returned back home,Radio conds was bad ,even
worse than 2016. Endless cq's...no one heard me....
Low power and a vertical on 20 mtr wasn't a success.
I'm laughing of this kids with stacked antennas and 
big amps,when they complaints..oohh only 1000 qso's
They should try a wire ore a vertical and 100 watts.
Was looking on the dx-cluster it's a lot of friendly 
Dx-spotting out there,it's no reason for a Scandinav
to spot another Scandinavian station in this test...
It's not allowed to work qso's inside Scandinavia. 
So the contest committee should look at this....
My suggestion 1 friendly spot 1% less score...
10 freindly spot 10% less score....
I don't know what LA7AK was doing but he spotted
him self 12 times in this contest, Mybee a new assisted 
category.....Thanks to all who called me, cu all neXt year.

VIKTORIYA ISL. IOTA EU-190

A group of Russian radio ham's was activ from this island 4 to 8 October.
Had some problem to work them/hear them ,but made 3 qsos and 3 band.
30 + 40 mtr cw and 20 mtr ssb  ,  thanks for a new iota worked.
I think this was a hard dx-pedition for the team, very cold and some
ice bears around the shelter.....
