The following shows the terminator at the time of K7CA's QSO with FT5XO (white crosshairs at bottom of plot) on 28 March at 0142 UTC. K7CA stated: "I worked the FT5 at 01:42z, about 5 min before my sunset [and almost exactly FT5XO's sunrise]. His direction was directly NE from my Cedar City, UT QTH. I can tell direction within about 15 degrees. My antenna has a 28 degree azimuth beam width to the NE. He was peaking 579 and was not copyable east, southeast, or south. 73, Al K7CA"
And here's the view from FT5XO. Note that K7CA is the crosshairs at the bottom. The exact antipode (the extreme Southeastern corner of VE6) is the outer circle...in other words any direction works for that point!
