Don, Google Earth DOES have exactly the feature you want. Simply click on the "Fly to" tab at the upper left, and enter the latitude and longitude in the window, then either hit ENTER or click on the magnifying glass button.
Be sure to enter the coordinates in degrees-minutes-secondsN, degrees-minutes-secondsW format, but without entering a dash or symbol between the numbers. You must have a comma separating the latitude from the longitude. For example: 34 35 21.84N, 120 30 15.37W If you entered the above data correctly, Google Earth should take you to a red-roofed house near Lompoc, CA. 73, Eric Lemmon WB6FLY -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Don KA9QJG Sent: Friday, July 27, 2007 8:39 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Lon and Lat Locator Hello Hope Everyone is doing well,. Can anyone tell Me if thee is a Program on the WWW Like Google Earth that will let you just put in a Known Lat and Lon and display the Location, Google and others I have found will show You that info on the Pointer Location but You already know the area You are looking in. The reason is I have a Ham Friend in Rural Arkansas who has a PO Box for a Address , He used a Program to sent Me a Sat photo of His QTH , But I know for a fact I have seen better on Google Earth . Thanks Don KA9QJG
