Map of Members on Saturday Net

Here are two views from Google Earth that show the locations of Bell Ringer members who have checked into our Saturday morning net during the past two years, according to records kept by W4BXI. The first view covers a wide area to show all station locations. Four circles show a range in miles from W4BXI's location. The legend at top right gives the radius for each circle.

The second view covers a smaller area to expand the view of the many stations located in Alabama and Georgia. Three circles show the range in miles from W4BXI's location.

These map views may help us to better understand the variation in reception among our members according to their ranges and the radio propagation experienced by frequency band and time of day.

I can easily add and remove stations and generate range circles centered on any point on the map.
