"Hams love maps, map software, and map-plications! Here's an online
applet to create a simple azimuthal-equisdistant map centered on any
location you care to specify." -- ARRL Contest Update
The latest edition of the Update contains this link:

The site allows for quite a few options. Click around and play. You
can drag the geographic map center with your mouse and you'll see the
LAT/LONG numbers change as you do. I see no azimuth ring around the
outside but a clever fellow can label his printed-out map.

PS: If, perchance, you don't know about the Windows "Print Screen" key
and your ability to paste (and edit) the captured bitmap into the
"Paint" program ... well, now you do. On Mac, use "Grab" for much the
same thing.
News I can use, thanks. Dave kd6il
