Thread: Melvern Waypoints

Thanks Thumbs UpThumbs UpBob!!! I'm sure all of us can use newHands ClappingHands Clapping spots. <*)}}}><

I entered them into mapquest and they came up in a field.

You have to have the right format...there are about 4 formats. These are DMM WGS 84. That means the numbers are D for the Degrees M for the minutes and the second M is for thousands of a minute. What ever you put the numbers into, the unit or software must be set up for that format. The more common format is DMS which is Degrees, Minutes, Seconds. You can change the format on all gps units and if you manually enter numbers...unit has to be set in the right format. I like the DMM format mainly because there are a few less numbers. I might be able to convert them to DMS and if I do I will post and you cna check them.

Here they are in the DMS format Try this format...they came up at Melvern on my software as did the others.

I never fish the lake and have no idea of what they mark but must mark something or I would not have had them. If they help some of you guys that fish Melvern, then they will be put to good use. I would like to know if some of them work for you.
