GPSMAP 176/176C Owner's Manual
If the active GRI Chain, secondary stations, or offsets have been
changed since the waypoint was created, the waypoint now references
the active GRI-chain and secondary stations. You must adjust the
TD coordinates accordingly. Remember that the GPS 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 (www.garmin.com/support/userManual.jsp.)
