Propagation Path Map
« on: July 17, 2019, 11:17:47 AM »

A few months ago I stumbled across a site that generated a pdf map.  I entered my location and then the site generated a PDF document with a map showing my location at the centre and then the rest of the world laid out around the centre.

Of course I forgot to bookmark the page and now I can't find it.

Any ideas?

Any ideas?

Plan A:

     1.) Look through your browser history from about two months ago.

     2.) Click on the relevant link.

Plan B:

     1.) Google "pdf map centered on my location".

     2.) Look through results and find options such as https://ns6t.net/azimuth/azimuth.html

     3.) Enter location and download PDF map.

VOACAP can do that except for the PDF file I think.

@Glenn - it was several months ago and so finding it in the browser history could be challenging.  I think the link you recommended could be the one but I can't get the map to render on my phone - I'll check on my PC.

@K0UA - Could be I'll check.

@OZ8AGB - I like that. Very nice.

If you are looking for beam headings, you might Google the term "Great Circle map."
