You have probably already figured out that you will need to pay
close attention to the configuration screens. The good news is that
you should only have to set things up one time. Keep in mind
though, that you may need to revisit these and other configuration
screens from time to time to get the receiver to do exactly what you
want it to.
With these details mentioned, let's get into the real NAV screens
