If QRZ.com does not give you your coordinates, try Google Maps. For
example, searching for my home address yields a web page with the
following URL (coordinates highlighted in red):
https://www.google.com/maps/place/303+E+26th+St,+Houston,+TX+77008/@29.8107346,-95.3978989,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x8640c77dc7654475:0x686941610c37968e!8m2!3d29.81073!4d-95.3957102
Conveniently, the FCC provides a converter *https:
<https://utc.org/plc-database-amateur-notification-process/>**//www.fcc.gov/media/radio/dms-decimal
<https://utc.org/plc-database-amateur-notification-process/>* **for
decimal degrees to degrees-minutes-seconds, which you can then copy and
paste into the form referenced below.
