The other day I found another website that shows Maidenhead Locators for
the Earth.
After saving this message I will look for the URL and enter another message
to You with it.

I found a webpage to do that also.

 EV> Oh, O.K., I was thinking Mdh and HamGrid were the same.
 EV> I sit corrected (again).   Thanks.

 HG> Maybe they are, but I don't know the MdH locator by that name.

Look up Your Call Sign on QRZ to see the Ham Grid map.
It isn't the map on the top right side, HamGrid is the second map below that
first one.
