Show WAAS Alarm

When the signal is available, your unit will automatically use WAAS to
boost the accuracy of a position fix. When the WAAS signal is lost or
acquired, an alarm message appears. Since the U.S. government is still
developing the WAAS system, it is not unusual for a GPS/WAAS re-
ceiver to frequently lose and reacquire its lock on a WAAS satellite.
That can result in the alarm going off repeatedly. If you want, you can
turn off the WAAS Acquired/Lost alarm without affecting how the unit
uses WAAS.
