NS6T's Azimuthal Map generator provides a web form for creating custom azimuthal projections centered on a user-specified QTH. Users can input their location using latitude/longitude coordinates, a Maidenhead grid square (e.g., IO91um), or a city name, with support for both US and international locations. The system processes these inputs to render a map displaying true bearings from the specified origin. Output customization includes options for distance, with a recommendation for 17500 kilometers and 8.5" x 11" paper size for integration with PSTRotator software. The generated PDF can be zoomed and clipped for use as a .jpg file in PSTRotator/Maps directories. The tool also offers an experimental color azimuthal map variant. City data for non-US locations is sourced from The World Gazetteer. The resource encourages user feedback and problem reports via comments on the associated blog, aiming for continuous improvement of the mapping utility.

AZIWORLD is a user-friendly tool for generating azimuthal maps of the Earth centered on any location. Compatible with Windows XP and later, it supports English and French. Maps can be saved in .bmp format for easy customization. AZIWORLD computes azimuths, distances, and geographical positions, integrating seamlessly with AZIPOINT for automatic antenna pointing. Linux/Ubuntu/Android users can run AZIWORLD via WINE or CROSSOVER. For optimal functionality, installing AZIPOINT alongside AZIWORLD is recommended.

Presents the S21WD DXpedition to Bangladesh (IOTA **AS-140**) scheduled for 2026, organized by the Next Generation DX Club e.V. It outlines the project's progress, including final hardware and systems testing, and the team's successful arrival and activation from the target location. The resource provides a concise summary of Bangladesh, covering its geography, cultural aspects, and economic landscape. The page includes the Clublog Most Wanted ranking for Bangladesh, categorized by continent and mode, as of January 2026. The DXpedition aims to achieve over 70,000 QSOs across CW, SSB, RTTY, and FT8 modes, with a specific focus on RTTY (targeting over 2,000 QSOs) and **lowband** operations. The team plans a Multi-Single entry in the ARRL CW 2026 contest. QSO data will be uploaded to Clublog and LoTW, with Clublog livestream and daily free LoTW uploads anticipated, contingent on stable internet connectivity. The S21WD callsign corresponds to CQ Zone 22 and ITU Zone 41. Further details include a preliminary bandplan, FT8 operating guidelines using MSHV software, a VOACAP DX Prediction link, and an azimuthal map centered on Bangladesh. QSL services are managed by DJ4MX via Clublog OQRS, offering direct, bureau, and LoTW options, with daily LoTW uploads expected.
