Excellent, T-man! I think this is the first all-in-one graphical representation of the ground points location that I've seen.

Perhaps you might consider adding this (well, the ground points one) to the 'New Vistor FAQ' post at the top?

Ill do that Randy, thanks.
It will be added to my website soon as well. Ive got a $hitload of stuff to update and add.


I basically used the WSM CD and enlarged the ground point image from the PDF then took a HQ pic of it, then ran it thought the paint program adding the text.
