The iGridSquare Amateur Radio (Ham) application for the iPhone and iTouch converts latitude and longitude into a 6-character grid square, an item often used by Ham operators to indicate their location, especially during contests or for obtaining awards.
iGridSquare is especially useful to “rovers”, Ham operators that go from location to location to provide contacts to other Hams from “rare” grid squares.
iGridSquare operates in two modes: automatic and manual.
In automatic mode, it uses the device’s core location service (CLS) to determine the latitude and longitude. The grid square is then automatically calculated. In an iPhone, CLS can use GPS, cell towers, and WI-FI signals. In an iTouch, only WI-FI is available.
In manual mode, the Ham operator enters longitude and latitude, perhaps from a portable GPS. Then, the grid square is calculated by pressing a button.
