Help..

On my Garmin 12 on the compass page my distance is in miles. I know how to set it to nautical miles or meters..but is it possible to set it to feet? If so how?

Right now as I approach a cache I will read 0.02 mi..0.01 mi..0.0 mile.not great resolution! Sure be nice if It would read 500 ft..400ft..etc..

Help

yeah, that's one of the top reasons I use metric. it's really easy to convert .02km to 20 meters. and it's easy to remember 1600km to a mile (approximately), a meter is a little longer than a yard, etc...

 

to directly answer your question, no. I have a 12 myself and I can't find any way to change the precision of the display.

I did hear from Garmin,

This unit can not disply in feet! Just miles, statute mile and kilometers.

 

I do like the suggestion that you set the unit in kilometers..0.01 km is better that

0.01 miles.
