Mark,
Wow--I had never seen the radio-timetraveler.blogspot.com site until
today. How did I miss it!! Can't wait to download these, and start
working out a game plan.
Since you obviously know a lot more about Google Earth than I, I can't
help but wonder if it's possible to overlay real-time grayline maps with
your maps for antenna patterns, ground conductivity, etc? That would be
like Geoclock on steroids!
Mark---everyone in the hobby should be grateful for the effort you've
put into this. Yeoman's work to be sure!

Les, two great tools:
http://www.topazdesigns.com/ambc/
Arguably the most useful and likely to be the most up-to-date
reference, this site will give you local sunset/sunrise times for
stations and you'll also find several other ways to index desired
targets as well as to help you with indecipherable IDs.
http://radio-timetraveller.blogspot.com/
Download the zip files showing target stations by frequency for both
day and night operation. This is very useful when you're listening to
that difficult ID and can't quite make out all the call-letters.
Having them all on a map in front of you is very useful.
I believe I sent you the logs from the recent D-Kaz broadside operation.
Good hunting!
