Going To a Waypoint

Once you’ve stored a waypoint in memory, you can use the GPS II to guide you

to it by performing a simple GOTO. A GOTO is really nothing more than the receiv-
er drawing a straight-line course from your present position to the destination you’ve
selected. To see how it works, let’s try navigating back to our starting position, the
HOME waypoint.

To select a GOTO destination:

1. Press GOTO.

2. Highlight the ‘HOME’ waypoint, (Fig. 16a) and press ENTER.

You’ll notice that you’ll automatically be on the default navigation page, the com-

pass page (Fig. 16b). Let’s navigate back to ‘HOME’ using this page.
