Another thing to keep in mind is depending on the location of the
transmitter, if it's West of - I can't recall the cutoff, you may need
to append a - (dash) to the longitude. I recall the first time I got
into GPS, I punched in some coordinates I heard for a medivac call
into a online mapping website, and it came up with a point somewhere
over the ocean. Then I was told if it's West, you need to add the
dash, or depending on the application, select West.

If the Longitude is west, then it will be considered to be minus (for this
type of program) - likewise, southern lattitudes are entered as minus as
well (the southern lattitude shouldn't be needed to often for the FCC
database - one would think).
