 Could this mean his QSO was actually long path?"

Long path would be a 10 degree bearing.  Al stated, "His direction was
directly NE [45 deg] from my Cedar City QTH."

It was 35 degrees off of long path, therefore it was a skew path.

Can antipodal QSOs be referred to as "long", "short", or :"skew" path???
