Log Format
This is to specify which information will be recorded for each way point.

Normally, UTC, latitude, longitude, valid, speed and RCR should be chosen.

Therefore, the number of recorded data is estimated to be about 74,000 points.

ELEVATION, AZIMUTH and SNR can only be checked when SID is checked.
