*** INFO - if you can not start or update the widget please uninstall/restart watch/install again ***

The widget generates the Maidenhead Locator System also QTH or QRA grid system which is a geographic co-ordinate system used by amateur radio operators to describe their locations. Its purpose is to be concise, accurate and robust in the face of interference and adverse transmission conditions. The Maidenhead Locator System can describe locations anywhere in the world (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maidenhead_Locator_System).

The 10-character GRID Locator is compatible with the RaDAR (Rapid Deployment Amateur Radio)

At start the Widget tries to get one time poor, usable or good GPS fix. Then it displays the GPS coordinates and the Locator GRID.

The color of the border indicates the quality of the GPS fix:
RED - no fix
ORANGE - poor
YELLOW - usable
GREEN - good
