   In a message on Friday 10-12-16 Ed Vance said to Holger Granholm:   
      
   GE Ed,   
      
   EV> I suppose everyone knows about the Maidenhead Locator System but me.   
      
   If you want to see where you are in the Maidenhead locator, surf to   
   www.dxmaps.com and choose the part of the world,you want to see.   
      
   I have not checked if you also can convert your latitude and longitude   
   to your own locator, but if not holler, and I'll find out a program for   
   you.   
      
    EV> I used QRZ.COM and learned that the place I remembered in the EJ   
    EV> grid is also in the EM78 grid, it just has a different set of Lower   
    EV> Case Letters after it than what my location has.   
      
   EV> Oh, O.K., I was thinking Mdh and HamGrid were the same.   
   EV> I sit corrected (again).   Thanks.   
      
   Maybe they are, but I don't know the MdH locator by that name.
