Figure 1-21 NAV/COM Page
The NAV/COM Page displays the available frequencies
(communications and navigation) for the departure airport,
any enroute airports which are included in the flight plan,
and the final destination airport. When using the direct-
to function, frequencies are listed for the airport nearest to
the starting position and the destination airport.
Displaying the frequency list for the
desired flight plan or direct-to airport:
1) Press the small right knob to activate the
cursor on the airport identifier field (in the GPS
Window).
2) Turn the small right knob to display the list
of airports (departure, arrival, and enroute) for
the flight plan or direct-to. Continue to turn
the small right knob until the desired airport
is selected.
3) Press the ENT Key to display the frequency list
for the selected airport.
A frequency listed on the NAV/COM Page can be

frequency already displayed elsewhere on the screen.

cursor in the GPS Window.
2) Turn the large right knob to select the desired
frequency from the list.

frequency to the standby field in the COM
Window. COM frequencies automatically go
to the standby field of the COM Window.
