NRST
The GPSMAP 295’s NRST key provides detailed information on the nine nearest airports, VORs,
NDBs, intersections and user waypoints within 200 miles of your present position. Information
regarding the five nearest FSS (flight service station) and center (ARTCC) points of communication,
along with associated frequency(s) is available, as well. When an airspace alert is provided, the Nearest
Pages will even provide additional detail about the airspace.
On the ground, use the NRST key to display up to 50 nearest cities, highway exits and (with
optional MapSource data) 50 points of interest in each category.
The Nearest Pages are organized by a series of file tabs across the top of the page. The following
information is displayed on the Nearest Pages:

field elevation.

Nearest Pages / File Tabs
The Nearest Pages can be used for emergencies, to retrieve
database information, to view airspace information once an
alert is provided or to select a nearby point as a destination.
Nearest pages are also provided for use on the ground. A list
of nearby cities, highway exits and points of interest are
always available.
