Thanks Chris,
I wanted to do this earlier but dreaded the awesome task of copying line by line due to yahoogroup limitation...you're the man!

All : For those who have other sites to contribute, please do NOT attach the list again. Simply add the correct number and describe your site.
If there is sufficient numbers, I will consolidate them into one post again.

Thanks

If anyone has tried Google Earth (http://earth.google.com/), this is a great tool to show where in Singapore these ob sites are !! I tried adding the placemarks here (*.kmz files) but they weren't allowed :-( Can an admin figure out how to allow them or do we need to create a forum on Google's keyhole community ?

i'm using google earth,yup and it's really a great program. the sat pics for singapore is kinda outdated, i think its abt 2-3 years old. and only the western part of singapore is not detailed. it can give u lat and lon coordinates also in deg or mins.
