There already is a call sign lookup widget.

I am also aware of an APRS findu widget and a DX cluster widget. Related,
but not directly ham radio widgets are the ISS locator widget and the sunlit
Earth (greyline) widget. All, except the APRS findu widget are on the Apple
widget page (http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/dashboard/).

Did I miss any?
