If the active GRI Chain, secondary stations, or offsets have been 

changed since the waypoint was created, the waypoint now 

references the active GRI chain and secondary stations and adjust 

the TD coordinates accordingly. Remember that the GPS 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/or secondary stations 

to create a LORAN TD location. For more information read our 

LORAN TD Position Format Handbook, available at the Garmin 

Web site, at
