Aloha everyone,
I just purchased an LS, a Triumph 2 and the 35watt UHF radio. In three setups, to date, I have scored two successes, so pretty good so far. Now I ask for your help. I’ll post one question at a time, to keep answers organized.
Import ?
When I use data exchange to import (from a usb drive) a csv point file with a point created by averaging NAD83(PA11) coords from many OPUS solutions and I have a page with NAD83(PA11) open in my project. The coords are approx. 19deg 35min 07sec N and 154deg 59min 44sec W. I found out the cords must be decimal degrees. I would like to learn how to import DMS format. Can you explain? I can accommodate decimal degrees if I must. (Aren't people fussy?)
More problematic: The point comes in with an East Longitude, and during the base setup I get a "too far" message. I couldn't figure out how to edit the point during base setup. Tried an import of decimal degrees and 205 E Long and the data was not acceptable to the program. How can I import a csv file of lat and long for my part of the world?
I had success by doing a manual entry of the points lat and long, very easy to do, just not as convenient as importing a csv file.
Can anyone offer suggestions?
Thanks, Richard
