John,
For ease of use the Indo site is easiest, but it is occasionally annoying
with its incomplete data base for non-US cities.  It's great circle bearings
and distances sometimes don't agree with other sites, but which is correct?
It's like having two watches with different times. ;)
Jim Tonne's Pizza is fun.  You use your cursor to define the measured path
if the city isn't in the data base.  Jim plotted the mystery tones' bearings
of last year on this program.
The FCC site has a long/lat distance calculator.  This site, and other
long/lat sites, can be pia because invariably I'll have the incorrect format
of long/lat for one of the targets.

John,

If you'd like to be able to enter coordinates in about any format and 
have the point plotted on a Google Map or click points on the Map and 
get range and bearing results between pairs, you might download a 
combination of VBS and HTML scripts I've written to do that.

You can get it here:
http://scooterhound.com/WWWR/ships/downloads/MapIt13.zip

The documentation has not been updated to include the latest 
additions, but they're intuitive anyway.
