Subject: [TowerTalk] great circle map needed - in color
>I was working the ARRL table at a recent hamfest, and a ham asked me what
>seemed to be an easy question. He wanted to make one of the fancy rotator
>controls with the great circle map of the world as the background. He was
>having a problem locating a big, full color, great circle map centered on
>central US.

>I'm sure these used to be readily available, but can't seem to locate any
>now. Does anyone know who makes such a map? (Sure hope no one tells me
>the ARRL makes them - my wife looked through the literature for me and said
>she couldn't find any).
