If the active GRI Chain, secondary stations, or offsets were changed

since the waypoint was created, the waypoint references the active

GRI chain and secondary stations and adjust the TD coordinates

accordingly. Remember that the GPS is not relying on the LORAN

signal for navigation and actually converts the TD coordinate to a

useful latitude and longitude coordinate before storing the waypoint

to memory or using it for navigation. Because of this, the unit can

navigate to a TD coordinate anywhere in the world.
You must know your GRI chain number and secondary stations

to create a LORAN TD position. For more information, read our

LORAN TD Position Format Handbook, available at the Garmin
