+GPS_DUDE Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 I have been using a Vista HC and a Vista HCX for many years now and have frequently changed position formats from UTM ( for mapping in the field ) and Lat / Long ( for geocaching ) with ease. My new unit the Oregon 400t is a very nice unit. My problem is when I go to Setup / Position Format and select UTM then go back to the main menu and select Map or Compass ( with data fields) it still shows the position in Lat / Long. I have updated the firmware to Garmins newest release. Any input would be apprieciated, cause it would be a great bennifit for me to work in UTM s. Thanx Quote Link to comment
+ryan3295 Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 You have it set right, the data field needs to be changed from: Location (lat/lon) to Location(selected) Quote Link to comment
