16.18.00.0 N109.18.00.0 W

When entering into civa, it's N(5digits)W(5digits).For example N16180 W10918Pretty sure anyway, It's been awhile since I've touched that gauge.Jay EklundCATV Senior Captain KDENhttp://online.vatsimindicators.net/812321/764.png

thanks a bunch guys,i'm sorted :)Jay,the first one is 5 digit,the second one can be six,as the longitude goes to 180.so your example is N16.18.0 then W109.18.0cheers :)Tom.

wow :) ,there's Avsim at it's very best:a friendly gentleman emailed meand offered me a converter.AWESOME!cheersJP.
