I don't know if the 296 has the same capability as the 430, but on the 430
you can define user waypoints as radials and distance from a VOR.

How do you do that with the 296? How do you program in a radial to fly
to? I don't even see radials on the VORs when I look at it. I haven't
been able to find anything on this in the manual.

There's nothing to stop you using the VOR for course guidance but using

the
GPS track readout to ensure that your track matches the VOR radial.

Forgive
me if that's very obvious, but I'm always surprised at how many pilots

don't
use that aspect of the GPS to take the hard work out of tracking
conventional navaids (particularly on the ILS).
