Presumably the forced heading is only useful if you know what direction you're travelling in.

Hi Steve, Force heading is different then speak Heading. Force heading allows you to set an initial heading when you have or don't already have a heading. It will last until you get a new heading from your GPS. Charles.

You can only have a heading if you are moving.

I have another question. I copy the quote from the Qucik Reference, "Force GPS Heading: ENTER with H" What does it mean? Will it turn the heading enable? Leslie--Charles M.
