My position was never in doubt. I didn't need the SAM VOR for position fix and I was tracking to the CPT then DTY VORs . Looking back at other posts I can appreciate the controllers position. She was incredibly busy and imo just needed an excuse to get rid of me to ease workload. My track would indeed have taken me very close to her CTA/R and it would have taken time out of her day to make sure I didn't deviate from my heading.
I refuse to use GPS for the time being. I've spent so long learning 1940's technology, I thought I'd make the most of it first
