if you have no net
Decimal Degrees = Degrees + minutes/60 + seconds/3600
42 55 24 = 42 55/60= .9166666 + .006666
=42.9233326

Thanks Phil,
and to get it back.
42.9233326
take .9233326 times by 60 = 55.399956
so 42 55
take .399956 times by 60 = 23.997
so 42 55 23.997 (round up to 24 due to truncated raw figures)

If you are using Oziexplorer go into Configeration (the little hammer and screw driver) and reset in maps to whatever you want then go to find maps at entered position .
