Default Garmin 296

OK, I got it. Just didn't enter enough times. Thanks.

That doesn't seem to work. I want to make two waypoints. First is at
the GTF VOR 259R at 66.7 miles. Second is the CTB 197R at 46.4 miles.
This was pretty easy with the 295, seems to be impossible with the 296.

Speaking of the Garmin handhelds I am trying to put in a user
waypoint referenced off a VOR for a couple of Fire TFR's that will
affect me Thursday. It was simple in my 295 but now with the 296
the manual doesn't say anything about it. Anybody know how to input
a user input that is a radial and DME off of a VOR?
