There are many ways to learn your longitude/laditude:
here are a few you may not know about.
http://www.crh.noaa.gov/ifps/MapClick.php?MapType=3&site=MPX&CiTemplate=1&map.x=244&map.y=224
put your city and state, or zip in top of screen, then look TWO places:
upper left corner, or
put your cursor on your QTH on the green map, and click it,
then below the green map will be your LONG/LAT and ELEVATION!

you get 9 clicks to zero this map into your EXACT QTH
and after you know your LONG/LAT, then use

NOW EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW THEIR 6digit GRID
