INTERSECTION INFORMATION

The GPS 90’s intersection waypoint page allows entry

of a desired intersection by identifier and displays posi-
tion and nearest VOR data for a selected intersection.

To view waypoint information on an intersection:

1. Select the intersection category from any waypoint field.

2. Enter the identifier of the desired intersection and press

the

E

key.

The GPS 90 will display the intersection’s latitude and

longitude below the identifier field, and calculate the
bearing and distance to the nearest VOR facility. Note that
the VOR displayed may not necessarily be the facility
used to define the intersection. The region and country of
the intersection will also be displayed at the bottom of the
page to help you confirm the location in the event of
duplicate identifiers.

NDB INFORMATION

The next waypoint category in the GPS 90’s intern a l

database is NDB facilities. The NDB waypoint page allows
you to select a desired NDB by entering the identifier,
facility name or city (see page 18). In addition to display-
ing the identifier, facility name and city/state of the NDB,
the NDB page will show the latitude and longitude of the
facility, the region/country, & the transmitting frequency.

To view waypoint information on a NDB:

1. Select the NDB category from any waypoint category field.

(on the third line) of the desired NDB.
