Thanks for the input. Going from the pencil line on the chart (from
McKinney to Oklahoma City for example) with 5 minute track marks was
once an issue of inputting waypoint coordinates to a King Loran C (did
I say I was out of touch?) - possibly from a booklet of airport
coordinates. Has this approach gone out of style? The big jets
still do something of this kind, I know....

The older model iFinder I have allows waypoint entries just by scrolling a
crosshair across the display (zoom in and out as needed) to the desired
points and pressing some buttons.

So yeah, you're kinda out of touch. ;-)
(My iFinder displays only in grayscale, so I appear to be ahead of you by
being only 5 years behind the times! :-))
