If the active GRI Chain, secondary stations, or offsets
have been changed since the waypoint was created,
the waypoint will now reference the active GRI-chain
and secondary stations and adjust the TD coordinates
accordingly. Remember that the GPSMAP 76CSx
is not relying on the LORAN signal for navigation
and actually converts the TD coordinate to a useful
latitude and longitude 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.
