my partner wasn't upset. just said don't make calls outside my "L" or coverage area.

your thoughts? thanks!
Look at it this way. There is a reason he passed on it. Maybe he saw the entire thing and decided there was nothing to call. He did not say that to you just to say it. Of course you might have a point of view, but so does he. You have to trust each other out there.

Peace
