Terry,
Thanks for the post. I was intrigued as I'm looking for a GPS system for my
car. I have a special "mission" in that I want to use it to find locations in
a 27 sq mile area for fire department response. There are times when I have to
respond from my home, or from local locations and I admit I don't know all the
many streets in my community (and there's lots of streets in the 27 sq mi).
While I didn't find actual GPS systems there, I found many interesting sites
listed and saved several. Great post for a rainy afternoon netsurf session.
Regards from the
"Keyboard Cowboy",
Master NetLord

Most of us miss out on life's big prizes. The Pulitzer. The Nobel.
Oscars. Tonys. Emmys. But we're all eligible for life's small
pleasures. A pat on the back. A kiss behind the ear. A four-pound
bass. A full moon. An empty parking space. A crackling fire. A great
meal. A glorious sunset. Hot soup. Cold beer.

¤| n anyone help please? We had some small bouts of cemetery
¤| vandalism at mily cemeteries on farms. (Halloween?) I have taken
¤| pictures of the ones so they can be put back, but I recently
¤| bought a GPS device and took cations of the graves.
¤|
¤|
¤| , does anyone know of a program where I can enter two points, and
¤| it will ve me direction and distance to walk? I.e., I enter the
¤| coordinates for int A, and wonder which direction to go for Point
¤| B, so I enter that int and it will give me something like:
¤|
¤| , 4,239 feet. So I get 45 degrees (clockwise) from North (about
¤| rtheast), and walk 4,239 feet and take a GPS reading again.
¤| It would be nderful if such a program would work on a PDA. If it
¤| worked on a PDA and was off, I would have to take a reading and
¤| calculate how far and rection to walk again.
¤|
¤|
¤| hope I am making sense. I really am a rookie when it comes to Lat
¤| and ng coordinates. Thank you, everyone.
¤|
¤|
¤| is is not a computer inquiry. Please feel free to email me off
¤| list. I uld appreciate a subject saying "Latlong" or
¤| "Coordinates>'
¤|
¤| ank you, everyone.
