There is
also a link from this site to a German website with a freeware program
called Prefix which generates a bearing and distance from your QTH on a
world map to the call sign you enter.(requires MS EXCEL) I'm going to
give this one a try.

I just downloaded and tested the program at the above link. It is a
Great Circle Map in Excel. I changed the coordinates for my QTH and
the angles changed appropriately, however, what I need now is that map
in the background on which the beam headings are plotted.

If anyone knows how to add this, I would appreciate knowing.

Thank you,
