Just worked Vic, uu5jib/mm on 20M CW at 02:46Z on Feb 27/02. He was on a 
fishing trawler at 36S/53E.

When I look this up on a great circle reference -
http://www.indo.com/distance/
it says this is 11,735 mi from Portland, OR on a heading of 20 deg NNE.
Somewhere S of Madagascar.

Vic said I had a good sig for 5 W.

That was fun...
