Narrative:
MTR X was cleared to point B (entry fix to ir-066). The controller at columbus RAPCON misunderstood the instructions and issued clearance into the route. The student pilot did not make initial contact at point B as required. Repeated attempts to call were made on 243.0 with no response. The first contact with center was made at point D, approximately 10 mins into the route.
