Default Chicago VFR Waypoint Lat/Long

I am trying to find the Lat/Long coordinates for the VFR Waypoints on the
Chicago TAC.

A magazine article I read said they were listed on the back of the chart,
which they aren't on the one I have. The chart I have says they are listed
in the A/FD, which they aren't.

Does anybody know where I can find this info?

I found this website during a Google search, however, I do not have the
names of the waypoints to tell you whether it works or not. Give it a
try:

They are in the section of the AF/D labeled ROUTES/WAYPOINTS/NAR ROUTES.

You have to look carefully in the book - its only a couple of pages between
the "preferred IFR routes" and North American Routes" sections.

And of course the TAC has longitude & lattitute tic-marks so you could also
just use a ruler & get pretty close!

Duat.com (encode or decode) will give lat/long on any VOR/waypoint/airport.

Post an example (I don't have any new TAC's at home.)
