Coordinates being loaded to a spreadsheet would also be useful if you are
simultaneously capturing RF via Perseus, Elad, etc. while in motion. That
could allow you to equate various locations with changes in signal strength,
channel dominance, and noise sources. This could be while in a car, truck,
boat, train, or plane (... even a drone?). An active whip such as MFJ-1024
mounted outside the vehicle's metal would be the typical antenna. You would
probably want the GPS lat. / long. data loaded to the laptop once a minute,
especially if you are trying to nail down the location of electrical noise.
You could then figure your coordinates at in-between times by interpolating
with the help of Excel formulae.

Hi Mark; I don’t suppose the Android has a compass app like iPhone? Maybe
search for “compass”? I’d like to take your question and take it a step
further. What about an app or device that plugs into a laptop and can output
GPS co-ordinates into Excel. Maybe even use my old Garmin as the GPS source?
Why? When I travel (with a co-pilot) it would be great if my Excel spreadsheet
of stations and distances could update every few minutes. Bill

Subject: [CapeDX] OT - app for latitude / longitude readout on phones Just
wondering if those in this group that are users of Android OS smartphones have
come across any apps that can grab latitude and longitude from GPS data and
display it in an easy to read fashion. In other words, since the phone already
has GPS in it, it should be able to report out your coordinates just as a
handheld dedicated GPS unit would. This could be useful for a number of things
such as antenna placement. If possible, the app should be free or low cost
(under $10/year) and not pose security risks (spyware / malware / virus). Mark
