CQDX modelEnter 4- or 6-character Maidenhead locators. Beam headings use true north. Short-path distances are measured between the centres of the four-character grid squares. CQDX receives those same four characters for the model estimate.

My DX watchlist
Save divisions to highlight their transmitting callsigns in the reports. Add a destination grid to check modelled 27 MHz windows from your QTH. This browser remembers your list. The beam heading and distance appear as soon as both grids are saved. Checking model estimates sends the four-character grids to CQDX.
