WSPRs from the High Arctic.

Some interesting WSPR spots on 14MHz over the past few days, from way up in the Arctic.

8S8ODEN, the icebreaker Oden, makes its presence known fairly regularly on WSPR, on this occasion, as a receiver of my 1W.  At the moment, it's off the NW coast of Greenland, up at around 78 degrees north:

Another ship, this time the German Research Vessel,  Polarstern, has also appeared infrequently as DP0POL, and is a new station for me.  Last heard sending a high output of 20W from off the west coast of Svalbard, at almost the same latitude as Oden, 79 degrees north:
