Google Earth will give you the coordinates of a point anywhere. There are lots of free ways to convert lat long to bearing such as trigonometry spreadsheets - or a GPS. I'm obviously not explaining myself very well. I'm not trying to say I have come up with some new revolutionary way to determine what heading some place is from you. The ways of doing that are endless. Which one is best, depends on the situation. Sure there are a number of places you can purchase a map and draw radials on it. However the chances of getting one that covers the area you want it to and having it centered where you want it aren't very good. Drawing all that on a map by hand is just way too much work if you ask me. I just think it is kind of cool to have a large map hanging on my wall centered at my location with radials going out. But hey I just like maps, guess that makes me weird. -- Chris W KE5GIX Gift Giving Made Easy Get the gifts you want & give the gifts they want One stop wish list for any gift, from anywhere, for any occasion! http://thewishzone.com |
