Sixty five TD-1 scans of the magnetic silicon star HD 170000 have been investigated using the method for lightcurves analysis proposed by Hempelmann and Schöneich. The fluxes originating in two spots and in the rest surface of the star have been separated. The conclusion is that the whole stellar surface is strongly peculiar. Spot 1 is a region with the same peculiarity as the rest surface, but strengthened, whereas spot 2 shows additional peculiarities with respect to spot 1 and the rest surface.
