World Map
 
Hello: I would like to have a hard copy world map for swl/ham. I am not
sure if the ARRL makes one.

In addition, what other information should be on a map for a swl/ham?

SR!

I have a very useful large world map, and on each country, their amateur
radio prefixes are listed. It's most helpful. I got it for free from a Yaesu
rep at a hamfest a couple of years ago. Perhaps check with a local amateur
radio dealer, if you have one near you, and ask if they know of any good
maps like this.

Everyone goes to
www.lib.utexas.edu/maps

But there are nice radio oriented ones at
www.qsl.net/ei8ic/maps/maps.html

and http://www.ac6v.com/opaids.htm#GCM
where you can get a somewhat useful custom
Great Circle Map (the centre of the world is
your house, thus all radio stations are
lined up to you.

http://www.wm7d.net/az_proj/az_html/azproj.shtml

So, what kind of map did you want and
how are you using it?

The Map Scroll
 
Thats right, I call it the map scroll. You may say "hey Steve, are you
crazy?"

No, I am not crazy! The idea came to me the other day when I was
cleaning out my radio junk closet, I came accross the Panasonic RF 2200.
This radio has something that you don't see that much. Considering a
late 70's/80's radio, the dial has a scolling feature which looks like
something I once saw on an much older radio.

In fact I wonder which was the first radio to come with this?

Ok, why couldn't they connect all of the diffent map a swl/ham may need,
and use that scrolling system. All you have to do is scoll over to the
next map page. Maybe it could be something you can keep on your desk.

It will save space and come in very handy.
