Azimuthal Maps (Free!)
Drifting through QRZNOW's Facebook page this morning, I came across this rather useful site, courtesy NS6T, that prints azimuthal maps to many different paper scales.
You just enter your Maidenhead locator grid, and off you go!

No matter how good your mental picture of the spherical Earth, it's always surprising how that model is sometimes shattered by looking at an azimuthal map!
