HamGrid shows your Maidenhead locator on a map: six characters for where you are, big enough to read at a glance. A grid that follows your zoom HamGrid draws the Maidenhead grid over the map and switches levels as you zoom: fields for a continent, squares for a country, subsquares for a town. Move the map, read the locator Drag the map and a crosshair appears. The locator now shows the point under the crosshair. It's a quick way to check the square of a summit you want to operate from, or of the station you're talking to. Search by locator or place Enter a full locator and the map jumps straight there. Enter just the start, like JO5, and all matching squares light up at once. You can also search for a town, a street or an airfield. Made for the air • The zero has a slash through it, so you can't mix up JO and J0 • Tap the locator to copy it for your log • A UTC clock right next to the locator • The accuracy of your fix in meters, so you know how much to trust the locator • A dark design that is easy on the eyes at night Widgets Small and medium widgets show your locator, the UTC time and a map of where you are. Privacy No account, no analytics, no tracking. HamGrid collects no data. Maps and place search come from Apple Maps. Made by mucnoc in Germany.
