bearing from a specific location to a new location.

previous sections). The new waypoint is created with the next
available waypoint number and the receiver's last known
position as the default position.
2. Press MENU twice to open the Main Menu.
3. Highlight Points from the vertical list of tabs using the
Rocker key.
4. Press MENU to open the New Waypoint page options menu.
5. Highlight Project Location and press ENTER.

ENTER.

from the original waypoint, highlight the Bearing field and
press ENTER. Enter the bearing and press ENTER.
9. When you have adjusted all elements of the projected
location, highlight Save and press ENTER.
10. Make any other desired changes to the new waypoint data
(such as the name or symbol), then highlight OK and press
ENTER.
