In navigation terminology, a particular location is known as a
“Waypoint,” whether it be a starting point, a destination point or an
intermediate point on a voyage.

Figure 4-1 Waypoints

The GD/GP-3300 series has 98 waypoints into which you can enter
position information. They are numbered from “zero-zero” (00) to
ninety-nine (99) and colored yellow. (Waypoint color cannot be
changed.) Waypoint “00” is reserved for use when your present posi-
tion is used as a starting waypoint, to find range and bearing to a
point. This will be explored in more detail later.

Waypoint “99” is an external waypoint where “To” waypoint selected
on the connected navaid is automatically stored.
