6.3 Recalculate Lat/Lon
If you change the center Lat/Lon or the ASF factors in a file or import a file from some source where you are unsure of
the conversion accuracy of Loran to Lat/Lon use this routine. It will go through the file and recalculate the Lat/Lon of
all Loran waypoints (except those entered as Lat/Lon or Loran+LL) using the current ASFs.
6.4 Convert to Loran
This is the routine to convert Lat/Lon waypoints to Loran if they are not already converted. It can also convert a file
with a combination of different Loran chains to all with the same Loran chain. A minus sign will be appended to the
chain number of the converted waypoints to show you which ones were converted and what they were converted from.
Thus, a -0 indicates that the data was derived from Lat/Lon and the TDs were convereted from that Waypoints already
in the desired chain as well as calibration points will not be affected. The conversion process can overwrite the original
TDs so save the converted file under another name to avoid losing the original data. You might need them later if you
change the ASFs (or calibrate) and do a more accurate conversion.
6.5 Re Sequence Date Code
Imported files are dated the day they were imported, and you may want a different date. This routine takes the DATE
CODE of the first waypoint as a reference and re-sequences (changes) all the rest to be in numerical sequence. If there
are more than 999 waypoints in the file, it will increment the date as necessary. Therefore, 07/04/13-999 will be
followed by 07/05/13-001.
