Re: [IRCA] Mauritania not on SW

[Glenn Hauser <wghauser@xxxxxxxxx>]

Tim, 

Perhaps another tactic is called for, such as DFing. Nouakchott is about as far west as you can go in Africa, and Damascus is beyond east, in fact about 45 degrees apart by the Great Circles, 90 vs 45 degrees or so from K`zoo.

73, Glenn
