Going To a Waypoint
Once you’ve stored the “CHANNL” waypoint in
memory, you can use the GPS 126/128 to guide you to
it by performing a simple GOTO. A GOTO is nothing
more than a straight-line course from your present posi-
tion to the destination you’ve selected.
Use caution when navigating. A “straight-line”
course reflects the shortest distance to a waypoint,
and does not navigate around obstructions, such
as land or buoys, etc.
Now that you have moved away from ‘CHANNL’ for
three minutes, let’s try navigating back to it.
To select a GOTO destination:
1. Press the
G
key.
2. The GOTO waypoint page will appear, displaying all the
waypoints in memory in alphabetical order.
3. Use
U
or
D
to highlight the ‘CHANNL’ waypoint.
4. Press the
F
key to confirm that you want to navi-
gate to the displayed waypoint.
5. Press the
J
key to view the Graphic Highway Page.

The GOTO waypoint page
allows you to select your
destination from a list of all
available waypoints in the
GPS 126/128’s memory.
