Okay, I gave myself the early birthday present. I can't believe how
sensitive the 296 is. I stroll down to the dock and it tells me that I
am tracking 178 degrees at 1 knot; I turn around and walk back, and
THE MAP FLIPS! and I am tracking 348 degrees (whatever). I even got it
to show a bank on the panel display when I walked briskly along and
tilted the GPS.

Anyhow, my question: I set it to show Zulu time and magnetic compass
readings. Then I wondered: is this the right thing to do?

Is this the right thing to do? Are there any other basic settings I
should set now that will improve my life to come?

Thanks!

all the best -- Dan Ford
