#1)  Displaying coordinates on Garmin Oregon 450t

Postby scutdude » Wed Apr 25, 2012 5:38 pm

I'm trying to transition to a Garmin Oregon 450t from my old tried-and-true Garmin 72.

Is there a way to display the current coordinates as I move around? If so, I sure can't find it. Also, is there a way to view the coordinates of marked waypoints without going into the edit function - and risk changing an entry?

Thanks for any suggestions!

Mike,

  I have  a Garmin Oregon 450t. I well understand your frustration. What a stupid design! My Garmin is on the blink right now. If I can get it back up and running I'll respond with where I found the features. Definitely not obvious.
