AngryViper.101 Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 Hi Please remind me. When I communicate with JTAC, and obtain coordinates: CP 8173 3194 I go through all the steps, and enter on CNVRT, but then receive a strange ICP screen? (See third screenshot below) Is this perhaps due to the GRID : 31N, I am currently on the Persian Gulf Map - how do I find the correct GRID reference - is this perhaps the problem? null null What do I do now? null i7-11800H @ 2.30GH | 16Gb 3200MHz | GeForce RTX 3060 | Samsung 1TB SSD | KINGSTON 520GB SSD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Tholozor Posted June 18, 2023 Solution Share Posted June 18, 2023 (edited) Incorrect grid zone designator (GZD). 31N would be near N0°E0°. GZDs are very large, and the one that encompasses most of the PG map is 40R (next closest 'CP' grid square would be hundreds of miles away). You can check the GZDs on the F10 map and switching the coordinate format to MGRS.

AngryViper.101 Posted June 18, 2023 Author Share Posted June 18, 2023 Hi Thanks for the reply, but how do I know which grid / where to see 40R?

I need a bit of a reminder on how to accurately, know which grid zone to pick on the F10 map?

AngryViper.101 Posted June 18, 2023 Author Share Posted June 18, 2023 Aha, got it thank you, now I see! I notice if I 'click' on that 40 R CP 823 .... coordinates, it changes to different formats. Excellent! thank you for the advice! null 1 i7-11800H @ 2.30GH | 16Gb 3200MHz | GeForce RTX 3060 | Samsung 1TB SSD | KINGSTON 520GB SSD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also cycle between those format by pressing CTRL+Y (CTRL+Z on some different language keyboards). 2 Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!
