◆ If have selected “NMEA” in Menu 2–2, pressing [POS] does not allow
you to access the display for entering latitude/ longitude data. The

◆ Grid squares were developed to shortly identify locations anywhere
on the Earth. The world is first divided into 324 areas (AA ~ RR)
called “fields”. Each field is then divided into 100 “squares” (00 ~ 99).
Each square is further divided into 576 “sub-squares” (AA ~ XX).
The world is eventually divided into 18, 662, 400 grids; each grid is
expressed with 6 digits.
