Yes, there are times when you have to go out of your area, but if your partner has a good look, let them call their area. The reason we have coverage areas is because that is the area where we have sight lines and angles. When we go out of that area, the chances that we are wrong increase greatly.

You used the operative words "thought" "looked" ...not real positve. IMO you done good holding whistle. There has to be no doubt, which includes a good sight line.
