Map Overlays (Range Rings; Lat/Long Grid)
The map screen can be customized with four range rings and/or grids

that divide the plotter into equal segments of latitude and longitude.
Range rings are handy for visually estimating distances on the map. The

ring diameters are based on the current zoom range. For example: at the

100 mile zoom, the screen will show two rings with your current position

in the center. The large ring touching the left and right sides of the

screen is 100 miles in diameter (same as the zoom range). The second

smaller ring is 50 miles in diameter (always 1/2 the zoom range).
The distance from your current position to the smaller ring (the ring's

radius) is 25 miles (always 1/4 the zoom range). With the arrow keys

and map cursor, you can scroll the map to see the third and fourth

rings. In this example, the distance to the third ring is 75 miles and

distance to the fourth ring is 100 miles from your current position.
