If the active GRI Chain, secondary stations or offsets have been changed since the waypoint was
created, the waypoint will now reference the active GRI chain and secondary stations and adjust the
TD coordinates accordingly. Remember that the GPS is not relying on the LORAN signal for navigation
and actually converts the TD coordinate to a useful LAT/LON coordinate (in the background) before
storing the waypoint to memory or using it for navigation. Because of this, the unit can navigate to a
TD coordinate anywhere in the world.
