The Outdoor Location Feature (Using GPS)

This feature allows you to determine your current location using a location menu, and your current
distance and bearing in relation to another location. Radio location may be requested and reported
over-the-air.
Your radio stores up to a maximum of 60 programmable location coordinates, also known as
waypoints. When the memory is full, the next waypoint automatically replaces the oldest waypoints in
the radio.
The radio also stores four preprogrammed waypoints. These coordinates cannot be deleted.
The following table shows the differences between programmable waypoints and preprogrammed
waypoints.
Programmable Waypoints
User-configurable location coordinates.
Only the alias is editable, not the coordinates.
Coordinates can be deleted one at a time, or all
at once.
