Tom,
Wow, thank yoi for setting that up. I will give it a try tonight.
Since I only have a couple hundred contacts to map I startrd the task last
night plotting lat-long. It was as slow as I feared but then it got a lot
faster.....
I downloaded a 6 digit grid square overlay for google earth. Then by opening
the detail page map on qrz for each call in a window next to google earth I had
street level detail for the QTH and I could compare maps quickly.
By zooming in on google earth to the listed 6 digit grid and matching the roads
up I was able to set the pins within a few feet in most cases. After some
practice it only took about a minute or so per pin to map it out. This is a
reasonable task with just a couple hundred contacts.
Learning a lot from this exercise. When I get done I will post a link to
results.
Tom, I will follow up on the use of the code you so kindly wrote.

Hi John and other folks,
I whipped up a quick Cabrillo Log to KML parser and uploaded it to
http://roverlog.2ub.org/. ;
Please have a look. If it's not working for you, you can get debug output with
"Alt-U" just like the other RoverLog modules I have written.
Let me know if you enjoy it.
Thanks,
Tom, N1MU.

I would like to pin map my QSO's from the September contest. Does anyone know
of software that can do this from just the call signs? Using QRZ to locate a
lat-long, copy it and then type it back in is going to be more painful than I
want to imagine.
