A distress signal sent by a Danish hill walker from a Scottish glen was 
picked up in Texas, before being relayed back to Highlands police.

The rescue in Glen Etive, near Fort William, was sparked by an emergency 
beacon the size of a TV remote control.

Neils Vinter, who felt unwell, sent a Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) 
text, which was picked up 4,000 miles away.
