[Elecraft] a cool software Idea

[Don Nesbitt]

Already exists.  See qrz.com/callsign - register and sign it.  Look up call
of station you are interested in.  Click on "Click for more Detail" - it
then shows you the distance in the text as well as a map of that stations
location and if you zoom out on the map, a line from you to them.  Quite
nice! Enjoy -- 73 -- Don N4HH

I hope this is ok to post.
I've had an idea for software but don't know if it already exists.
You tell the software what your location is.
You type in a callsign and it shows you not only the name, city, state
of the call.
But it also displays a map showing the approximate location on a map and
indicates crow-fly distance.

One could easily do this in two steps using online hamcall and then
google map I guess.

Does any such software exist?

Thanks 
Duane
