Down here in the South Pacific, 
we are a long way from 
the main amateur populations, 
hence virtually every QSO is "DX".
So here's a typical shot of the great circle map in Logger32 during CQ WW contest, with an arc of EU spots from the West round to the North, a scattering in the Americas and a cluster around China and Japan.
Notice how few spots there are 
in the SW quadrant i.e. Africa.
This is normal down here.
