Grid Location, Coords - Coords = grid location, grid location = A Letter Followed by a Number, Followed by KP followed by A separate Number, optional: Sub Number. I.E. B5 KP7sub1, look at your map, find the B column, trace it down to match with the 5 row, then identify the box inside that box inside the map's box. Key pad is CORRECTLY in this format:

9 - 8 - 7
6 - 5 - 4

then for sub 1, imagine another grid inside the Keypad, then guess about where it would be inside that grid.

A1KP2 refers to the following:

A1 grid, there are 32 grid squares going from A1-2-3-4-etc to H1-2-3-4-etc, all the way up to A8 and H8.

KP2 refers to the keypad, as grid squares are further divided up into 9 little boxes.I use a simpler term, A47 for example, which would mean the grid of A4, and the keypad of 7.

The keypads don't work like your mobile phone however, they work like this:

7 8 9
4 5 6
1 2 3

Usually I don't use the "KP" part of this... I say A1-2... Just a variation of it.
