[font "Arial"][#000000][size 2]The difference which is even more important is if you are copying somone else's points (or transferring them to another GPS unit) is to make sure both GPS units are using the same projection.
You can find which projection your GPS unit is using by looking under the "set up" menu or something similar.[/quote][/size][/#000000][/font]
Having bought my GPS refurbished and it didn't come with a manual, and that up till now I've only marked places I've been - this is all very good info! [

It was under "units." WGS 84 was what mine was set at. (And boy there were a lot of other options!) And, that's where I found the info on the conversions also. (hddd° mm.mmm)
THANKS!!!!
