Sorry, hit the send key to early ....
Hello NLRS land.
If you have not seen this before, here is a handy web based tool that I use
a lot for planning my roving trips, checking distances, etc. The website is
by F6FVY and is located here:
http://f6fvy.free.fr/qthLocator/fullScreen.php?locator=EN36
At the bottom you can type in a 2, 4 or 6 character grid and it you take you
there. You can zoom in and out. If you click and hold you can pan. If
you click & release it will show you the six digit subgrid. You can also enter
a "home" grid to get bearing and distances from one spot to another. On
the top right you can select "map", Satellite", or "Hybrid" which is a blend.
I often use this tool looking for rover spots, then switch over to Google
Earth to check it out.
