Piaty diel SLP Competition 2017, held on July 8 and 9, brought other interesting battles on the bands and at the same time significantly influenced the running order of the annual competition. The stage was demanding not only in terms of income conditions, but also competition between participants, which was reflected in high point gains.

Najlepší výkon predviedol Kees Schout (NL294), ktorý si výborným výsledkom 11 844 bodov upevnil pozíciu na čele tabuľky. Na druhom mieste skončil Alex Gorbunov (US-Q-73) s 9 375 bodmi, pričom na tretie miesto ho tesne nasledoval Helmut Grund (DE2HUG) so ziskom 9 317 bodov. Only a small difference between second and third place indicates the evenness of this part of the competition.
Štvrté miesto obsadil Aleksandr Boyko (US-Q-2115) s 8 050 bodmi, who moved higher in the overall ranking with this performance. He made it to the top five Johan Heus (NL9723) so 6 552 bodmi, ktorý pokračuje v stabilných výkonoch počas celej sezóny.

He recorded the best result among domestic competitors Dušan Hanák (OK2-9329) so 3 763 bodmi, nasledovaný Vitom Siručkom (OK2-36449) a Marcom Stinkensom (ONL4638). V súťaži nechýbali ani ďalší účastníci, vrátane Olega Ivanchenka (UB50734221), ktorí zbierajú cenné skúsenosti.
V priebežnom poradí si vedenie udržal NL6904, aj keď v tejto etape neštartoval. V tesnom závese ho nasledujú NL294 a NL9723, who reduced the leader's lead with their points. The following stages will decide whether the leadership will be maintained, or whether there will be a significant turnaround in the year-long ranking.
