are creating a waypoint at an on-screen navaid, the default symbol and comment will
automatically reflect the selected navaid’s name and symbol.

4. To change the name, symbol or comment, highlight the appropriate field and press 

T

.

5. After entering and confirming your changes, move the field highlight back to the ‘Done?’

prompt and press

keypad to enter the new waypoint name, icon, position, and comment. Press

T

after the last character in each section.
