Grid Square Distance

This is a Maidenhead Grid Square Distance Calculator. The way it works is based on the Maidenhead Locator System. Using this location system we can calculate your location and the DX station location within a 1° latitude by 2° longitude measurement. With this information we are able to calculate the distance and angle to the distant station from your station.

If you don't have the dx station's grid square but you do have the station's lat/long in degrees, minutes and seconds and you need to calculate that grid square, you can use the ARRL's grid calculator to determine the dx station's Maidenhead Grid Square.

Your Grid:(6 chars max): i.e. EM84ux
The DX Station's Grid:(6 chars max): i.e. JN38up
