AM GOING CRAZY!! TRYING TO ENTER LAT/LONGS
« on: April 06, 2012, 11:51:12 AM »
 I spent 2 hours entering my lats and longs on a card  and put it in my machine and coordinates took me to NEPAL!! so I went to Hummin PC and looked on google earth and again NEPAL. rechecked my numbers and they are the ones i entered.

When I entered them into hummin pc there was some issues on how I could enter them but they look alright

Any suggestions??

At least you have your sanity back.. ;D

Lon/lat can be frustrating at times..In the usa we sometimes have to put in the minus sign also.
Depending on whose device we are using..

Glad you got working..

Maybe you should post those coordinates – they could mark good fishing spots way over there in Nepal!
