How Lowrance GPS Works You'll navigate faster and easier if you understand how the GlobalMap 5300c scans the sky to tell you where you are on the earth — and, where you're going.

If you're new to GPS, read on, and you can later impress your friends with your new-found knowl- edge.) First, think of your unit as a small but powe

Like any com- puter file, these GPS Data Files (file format *.usr) can be shared be- tween Lowrance GPS or sonar/GPS units or even personal computers. This GlobalMap 5300c has one more thing in common with a personal computer. Just as computers have a floppy disk drive for storing and ex- changing files, the unit has a slot for an MMC (MultiMedia Card) or SD (Secure Digital card) flash memory card. These solid-state memory de- vices a

So, the FAA has developed a program to boost GPS performance with its Wide Area Augmentation System, or WAAS. The FAA commissioned the system on July 11, 2003. WAAS is designed to increa
