I built one in access that I used to score the NRC contests when we were using cumulative mileage. relatively straight forward. Bill Hale developed a spreadsheet in Excel that did he same also back when he edited GYDXA.

If you're handy with Microsoft Access, you could probably make a copy of the spreadsheet, saving it as data without the formulas, and import that into acces and write a query which would could plug any frequency into and get the results.

Example: Location: Iowa City, Iowa Frequency: 1490 1) KBUR - Burlington, Iowa (61.4 mi) 2) WDBQ - Dubuque, Iowa (73.2 mi) 3) KXLQ - Indianola, Iowa (106.6 mi) 4) WZOE - Princeton, Illinois (110.3 mi) 5) KRIB - Mason City, Iowa (132.1 mi) 6) WGEZ - Beloit, Wisconsin (142.8 mi) 7) WLFN - LaCrosse, Wisconsin (150.9 mi) And so forth.... Anyone out there know of anything like this? 73, Rick Dau South Omaha, Nebraska _______________________________________________ The NRC AM mailing list Questions?
