Narrative

HAD JUST TURNED EBOUND ON V-468 ABOUT 2-3 MI W OF YKM. (I WAS AT 16000). I HAD BEEN TALKING WITH FEMALE VOICE; A MALE VOICE CAME ON THE AIR AND SAID SMA DSND IMMEDIATELY TO 15000. WELL I DID. BY THE TIME I GOT LEVEL AT 15000 AND CHKED MY POS; I WAS BY YKM. I ASKED FOR RADAR VECTORS DIRECT PDX. I WAS GIVEN A HDG AROUND 070 DEGS. I AGAIN ASKED FOR RADAR VECTORS DIRECT TO PDX. A NEW VOICE ASKED WHAT MY DEST WAS. I SAID PORTLAND. I THEN WAS GIVEN HDGS TO PORTLAND. I ASKED CTR FOR A PHONE NUMBER. I CALLED CTR AND FOUND THEY WERE DOING TRAINING. I WAS W OF YKM AT 16000 AND HDG E. THERE WAS A MDT E OF YKM AT 16000 HDG W. I DON'T KNOW IF IT WAS A TRAINING INSTRUCTOR; BUT THE CTLR WHO GAVE ME 15000 SAW A BAD SITUATION DEVELOPING AND TOOK ACTION. DUE TO THE TIMELINESS; THERE WAS NO CONFLICT. IT GOT A LITTLE TENSE. BY OVERSHOOTING YKM WHEN I ASKED FOR VECTORS TO PORTLAND; I BELIEVE THE CTLR THOUGHT I SAID PULLMAN AND WAS GIVING ME A VECTOR TO PULLMAN; WA. I ALSO WAS THEN GIVEN 14000. I ASKED AGAIN FOR VECTORS TO PDX AND ANOTHER VOICE ASKED ME WHAT MY DEST WAS AND THEN I GOT VECTORS TO PDX WHEN I CONFIRMED THAT PDX WAS; IN FACT; WHERE I WANTED TO GO. WHOEVER IT WAS AT CTR WHO SAW THE CONFLICT AND GAVE ME THE NEW ALT SURE EARNED HIS PAY.
