Loran TD
Position Format
1
As a convenience to our customers that have used Loran C as
their primary source of navigation, we are now including a
Loran TD
position format in our marine GPS products.
The new
Loran TD
Position Format will allow our customers to
enter Time Difference (TD) coordinates into their GARMIN GPS.
When a Loran C, TD coordinate is entered in a GARMIN GPS, the
coordinate will go through a conversion that makes it GPS friendly.
The converted coordinate can be used for immediate navigation
and/or stored for future use.
For those unfamiliar with Loran C, but want to use TD coordi-
nates in your GARMIN GPS, it will help to have a basic under-
standing of Loran C and it’s components. This booklet is designed
to provide you with enough basic knowledge of Loran C to allow
you to setup and use the GARMIN
Loran TD
Position Format.
