Comments:

Had a pretty tough week prior to the contest, anyhow, got to the contest
QTH early on friday afternoon, got everything set up and got a few hours
of well needed sleep. Then at 1 am local started the contest, all
signals having a bad polar flutter on them, very slowgoing start. After
an hour or so the phase increased. About 3 hours into the contest the
band totally died, no signals at all. 

Stayed as this until next morning, at 11 am local the big-gun stations
started to come through again, but it took several more hours before the
band started to get in shape again, only to die late evening.

Don´t know why, if we Scandinavians were punished by the aurora gods or
if this fenomena struck all 20m guys.

Equipment used was a FT1000MP mk V + 1KW and a 6 element quad.
