Add coordinates into FMC

Featured Replies

Hi,Is it possible to manually add coordinates for a waypoint into the legs page of the FMC instead of a waypoint's name?I googled around and found this for the pmdg 747:4800N 01500W = N4800.0W01500.0And this:4800N 01500W = N4800.0W/01500.0However, I'm flying the pmdg 737-800 and it doesn't work with that. In the first case I get "Not in database" and in the second "Invalid entry".Thanks,Martin.
