(3) Creating A User-Defined NDB Waypoint.
A user-defined NDB waypoint must contain an
identifier, latitude and longitude. An NDB frequency
may be stored. The procedure for creating an NDB
user waypoint is similar to that described for creating
an airport user waypoint. Begin by selecting the NDB
waypoint type pages. The NDB identifier can be one
to three characters in length. An NDB user waypoint
page contains the user identifier at the top of the page
and three lines of dashes. The top line of dashes may
be filled in with the NDB frequency. The second line is
for latitude and the third line is for longitude. Refer to
Figure 3-33.
(4) Creating User-Defined Intersection or
Supplemental Waypoints. A user-defined intersection
or supplemental waypoint must contain an identifier,
latitude, and longitude. The identifier for either can be
one to five characters in length. There are two
procedures which may be used to define these
waypoints. Both procedures begin by selecting the
INT or SUP type waypoints, as appropriate.

The first method is similar to that described for
creating an airport, VOR, or NDB user waypoint. The
second method is to define the waypoint's position in
terms of a radial and the distance from any other
published or previously defined user waypoint.
NOTE
Entering the reference waypoint, radial,
and distance is done only to define the
waypoint's latitude and longitude position.
The
reference
waypoint,
radial,
and
distance are not stored as part of the user
waypoint. As soon as another page is
viewed on the right side, these parameters
are lost. If a waypoint page for a user-
defined
intersection
or
supplemental
waypoint is viewed later on, it will display
the radial and distance from the VOR
nearest the user-defined waypoint. The
original reference point may be reentered
at any time.
1. Use the right outer knob to select INT
or
SUP
type
waypoints,
as
appropriate.
2. Use the right CRSR button and the
right inner and outer knobs to select a
waypoint identifier.
3. Rotate the right outer knob to position
the cursor over USER POS? and
press the ENT button.
4. Turn
the
right
outer
knob
counterclockwise
to
position
the
cursor over the dashes to the right of
REF. Refer to Figure 3-34.
5. Use the right inner and outer knobs to
enter the identifier for the reference
waypoint.
6. Press the ENT button to see the
waypoint
page
for
the
reference
waypoint just entered.
