He gave you a ITU zone number (different from WAZ).

Yeah, but 18 *is* the right ITU zone for the Faroes. (I want to say it's
WAZ Zone 40) ITU Zone 29 is western Russia & adjoining countries.
(Ukraine, Baltic States, etc.)

I'm thinking Terry busted the call but am having trouble figuring out
who he really worked. Maybe UY1A?
