I have added a link on my Favorites page on Astronomystores dot com to this
site.  There are 5 different versions available.

There is a govenrment program called "Corpscon" (version 6x is current) that
allows a user to convert from almost any coordinate system to any other.
Google for Corpscon 6 and download it.

I'm putting together some maps to SAC sites, but I have been given conflict
formats for GPS values.  Two people have given me mutually exclusive formats
(and objected to the others format).

So which format can you input?

        1)  DDD MM SS.S
        2)  DDD MM.MMM
        3)  DDD.DDDD

My dad's Magellan RoadMate 800 will only allow street addresses. :-(
