=========================== AZIWORLD by G. RIVAT F6DQM =========================== This program is a generator of coloured azimuth world maps centered on any terrestrial position. It works under Win95/98/ME/2000/XP/NT/7/8/10. To instal it, just unzip the joined zip file in a dedicated directory. When runned, the program displays a world Mercator map. To generate an azimut world map, move the mouse pointer to the wanted desired location. The program displays the current geographical location of the mouse pointer. Then click the left button of the mouse to start generartion of the azimuth map. The duration of generation depends on the processor speed. A progress bar tells you upon the process evolution. The azimuth map may be added with axis (N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W et NW) and with equidistant circles (5000, 10000 et 15000 km). The external circle of the map is 20000 km. To save the map, just click the relevant menu in the main window. The image format is BMP. It is then possible to personalize the map by using your favourite graphic software. A simple click in a DXCC list allows to locate on the azimuth map the geographical position of the a DXCC country, along with the relevant azimuth and range. A call entered in the CALL window will set the focus to the nearest prefix in the DXCC list and locate it on the azimuth map. The dynamical mouse position on the azimuth map is automatically computed as azimuth and range. The last saved azimuth map is automatically displayed when running AziWorld. VERY IMPORTANT : While running this program under VISTA, WIN7, 8, 10 from a sub-directory under the directory Program Files, you will have to start this program as administrator anyway for getting full access to all functions of it, especially the recording of text files, image files, sound files. If you don’t do that, the produced files won’t be accessible because of the UserAccountControl (UAC) of Windows. If you don’t want to run the program as admin, you have to install it in a sub-directory which is NOT under C:\Program Files, but anyw
