If the active GRI Chain, secondary stations, or offsets
have been changed since the waypoint was created,
the waypoint references the active GRI-chain and
secondary stations and adjusts the TD coordinates
accordingly. Remember that the GPSMAP 60Cx is
GPSMAP 60Cx Owner's Manual
not relying on the LORAN signal for navigation and
actually converts the TD coordinate to a latitude and
longitude 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.
