I need to aim a directional antenna. I think the heading to the tower is around 120* East, but I can't be sure. That's a guess looking at a map.
So what I did is found the latitude and longitude of the tower, and the latitude and longitude of the antenna in hopes that one of you guys will know how to translate that into a heading or compass bearing for me.
I have a Garmin GPS on my phone that works really nice, and I think it'll dial me right in.
The antenna is here...
Lat: 41.25791480
Lon: -81.31801401
and will be aimed at he tower here...
Lat: 41.086611
Lon: -80.641306
The second antenna aiming option is towards New Castle, PA.
1° 0' 13" N / 80° 20' 50" W
Thanks, guys!!! :tu
