Title: Re: Specific coordinates Post by kevinh on Feb 26th, 2013 at 8:46pm flynryan692 wrote on Feb 26th, 2013 at 7:23pm:
Try 60N20, 55N22 and 50N23. They should work (you drop the hundred digit, not the unit digit, for the longitude). 60N12 is N60 W112, which is why you were close but wrong. Apart from the five character codes, there are two other ways of doing this (though whether they work with the 777 I don't know). For an exact position down to a tenth of a minute use: Nddmm.m/Edddmm.m Sdd.mm.m/Wdddmm.m So in your example N5500.0/W12200.0 Or for whole degrees only: NddWddd SddEddd So for your waypoint this should work: N55W122 In both cases the degrees for E and W must have three digits, so add a leading zero for anything less than 100.
