The message <f8n4tr$1ht$3@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
from Chris Malcolm <cam@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> contains these words:
They do have some navigation features (goto and following saved tracks)
but don't do grid refs only lat / long in WGS-84.
Exactly. I can't find one whose adverts say "grid reference". You'd
think that was pretty basic, but it seems not...
There are some that don't say it in the adverts but still do it,
simply because it's not a popular feature, esp in the US. You need to
check the manuals.
AFAICT the common or garden variety of in car sat-nav typically doesn't
do grid refs. That's why I ended up with a Garmin one which did at least
offer the option even if it is a PITA to use.
