Garmin APOLLO GX65 - Manual (Page 31)

Storing a
Waypoint
Your Apollo GX can store up to 500 user-defined
waypoints in the USER database. The waypoint can
be created by providing a Lat/Lon position or by a
Radial and Distance from a reference waypoint.
Then, you can give your waypoint a name and even
include a runway length. You can use up to six
characters with upper case letters, numbers, or a space
for the name. You can also enter a runway length
from 0 to 9999 ft. You are not allowed to use a USER
waypoint as the Radial and Distance reference
waypoint. This example will create a Lat/Lon-based
USER waypoint. For more details on waypoints, see
the Waypoint Database section on page 5-1.
