Download a (free) copy of Logger32 from www.Logger32.net.  It has a 
wonderful interface to the Green Heron box, and you can resize the great 
circle map to anything you want it to be on your display.  You can even 
turn your beams by using your mouse to "pull" the rotator heading cursor 
anywhere in the world.

And -- if you also use the DX cluster and Log Entry windows of Logger32, 
you can click on a cluster spot, have the country be automatically 
highlighted on the great circle map, and use Ctrl-A or Alt-A to send 
your beam to the short path or long path heading, respectively, for that 
country.
