Here are two recent NOTAMs in my area:

05/137 - AIRSPACE AEROBATIC AREA 4000/BLW 1 NMR CSN123009/3VA3
WKENDS. 12 MAY 14:00 2012 UNTIL 28 OCT 23:00 2012. CREATED: 09 MAY 16:25 2012

05/011 - AIRSPACE PJE 3 NMR CSN083003.8/7VG0 12000/BLW DALGT. WIE UNTIL UFN. CREATED:
02 MAY 16:13 2011

Both of these happen to be at airports (3VA3 and 7VG0) but I often see just azimuth and distance from a VOR (in these, 123 at 9 nm from CSN and 083 at 3.8 nm from CSN). These show different radii (1 nm and 3 nm) from the specified spot.

My request is for me to add restricted zones or user added airspaces where I can specify the azimuth, distance, and nm radius from a VOR. Once entered, it would be like a custom location (removed only when I remove it since these areas are often seen in the NOTAMs) but would be like a restricted area that would warn me if I am close. For the example of the aerobatic area at the Flying Circus, 3VA3, it is very close to the pattern for Culpeper, KCJR, so, in this case, I just want to see a red 1 nm circle centered at the specified location and not flashing displays or warning bells.
