To change the settings of any of the ﬁ ve ﬁ elds, highlight the ﬁ eld,

press ENTER select/enter the desired setting, then press ENTER.

6. When done, highlight the ‘Save’ button and press ENTER.

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 coordi-

nates accordingly. Remember that the GPSmap 76CS is not relying on

the LORAN signal for navigation and actually converts the TD coordinate

to a useful LAT/LON coordinate 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.

You must know your GRI chain number and secondary stations to

create a LORAN TD position. For more information please read our

LORAN TD Position Format Handbook, available at the Garmin Web site,

at www.garmin.com/support/userManual.html.
