Stefan - It was one of those very (very rare) stable Polar iono nights you get - I can count them on half of one hand over the last 14 or so years of LF reception off and on from here.
At the moment at 0500z DCF39 138.8305kHz signals are some 29dB down from the same time last night.... so if you hear me moan about pesky Protons or other unwanted attenuative particles bear with me ! Its an signal illness called "Northern Geomagnetic/Geolat signal constipation" and comes with wanting to pass signals over the pole when they don't want to be passed :-)

Hi Laurence,
Wow, excellent! This is our best result so far i think. From what we had achieved until now i didn't think that a WSPR-15 detection is possible over the N pole. Condx must have been truely excellent because my signal level is at least 3 dB down now :-)
These 3 rows will make it to my collection of remarkable achievements :-) :
