Hi all,

may someone help me transform these two coordinates into UTM grid. The two 
locations are supposed to be in Uganda according to my correspondant. By 
transferring them into UTM grid I always end up in the Khartoum area in 
Sudan.

site 1: Zone 36 Easting 330104 Northing 150680
site 2: Zone 36 Easting 330086 Northing 148715

(oh yes, these are meteorite related)

thanks for your efforts in advance
Best wishes
Svend
