I've never used a GPS and have now been loaned one for a upcoming trip. I thought I'd be clever and pre enter some waypoints from this website using the Trek notes. The maps I have and the GPS I have want the location like this; N38 deg 51.334, W094 deg 47.941. I guess these are northern hemisphere but it is just the layout I am talking about. The trek notes list them in a slightly different format, ie127.666473E, 18.224874S. Can one be easily converted to the other to maintain what is already stored in the GPS, or how do the 2 systems marry up. May be obvious to some but confusing to me.
