GridLoc- Spreadsheet for Locator calculations


Amidon CoilCalc - calculate Inductance/number of turns for various Amidon cores


GridLoc
This little spreadsheet does the following

- Converts Grad/Min/sec coordinate to decimal
- Calculates the distance between two coordinates
- prints coordinates  (bootem-left and top-right) for given Maidenhead locator
- prints Maidenhaed (MH) locator for given coordinates
- links to MapQuest to show the position of a locator

My QTH map created using the GridLoc sheet + MapQuest, then added the grid lines manually (look for the red star placed by MapQuest): QTH

CoilCalc
This spreadhseet holds Al-Values for many Amidon cores to ease calculation of number of turns for given Inductance and vice versa. Variances are shown for deviations 10% plus/minus core Al and plus/minus half turn, respectively.
