Jim,
Not exactly what you're looking for, but close.

There might be one on the ARRL site, but I'll have to look for it.

Jim,
I think this is what you're looking for:

Click on the left side box called 'N4MC's Ham Locator' and fill in the zip or call as per the tabs.

you can click on your location when your on QRZed and it shows all the hams in your area. You can also click on other boxes to see other hams.

that's like the one i've seen somewhere (sense 2005). the one i saw had me on it. if i saw a tower, i could drill and scroll and get the name and call letters.
there was a ham, whose house i would drive by on the way to work that had his house destroyed during hurricane rita. i used it to find out who he was. found out i had a neighbor that was also a ham.

one day, i'm going to find the map...it is on one of my older computers just have to see if i can read the hard drive and find it. it is exactly like the one on vanity but the data base is more complete. if i ever run across it, i will post the link.
if u locate me by call letter (wb5jaz) there is another ham that lives on the north part of the loop that rode out hurricane rita. we are abt 5.6' above sea level. if we do flood, u don't get out. i wouldn't do it. (Rita was 2005, we were 1 month after Katrina so this is rather old).

How about that. If you look close you can see the shadow of the tower across the deck and back porch. And there's a camper in the yard. After all, this is Open Roads Radio.net

(on edit, I fat fingered my call. I did not move to Japan.) :duck:

Wade,

I must be the opposite of you you show two white vehicles and I show two black.

I also noted that the scale for each photo must be different, my property would run from your drive to not your neighbor's drive but to his neighbor's. How many acres do you have?

In the Georgia heat I prefer white, or at least a lighter colored vehicle.

One of those is a company truck. At one time we had 3 white, Ford F-150 extended cabs in the drive way. Mine, my sons, and the company truck.

If you zoom up you can see our garden plot in the back. We have excactly one acre.
