Hi Bruce,


I red about your comments on long 160m openings. By chance I was at the polar circle during the latest solar storm two weeks ago.  I have been up there quite a few times during the past two years chasing polar lights but never experienced such an intensity of Aurora Borealis. Here are some pictures I took March 5th to 7th. It was a Kp Index of 5.3 - not bad for 2017. By the way, when I was in TN0CW and TL0CW I experienced outstanding 160m openigs to W6/W7. Later I heard that was solar storms as well... A very interesting phemon.


Good DX on 160m!
