Garmin 225 Manuale Proprietario

The GPSMAP system stores over 1900
alphanumeric waypoints, with selectable
graphic icons and a user-defined comment
field. If you mark a navaid position that
appears on a G-chart electronic cartridge, 
the default comment will automatically select
the navaid text associated with the marker.
