I can not enter N38.93035 on my 788ci. It will only go up to N38.5 and then starts over with 0. This is with NAD 83 Help please.

You should be able to change the Position Format menu setting just like LittleJohn did on his 898c Si unit. This menu is under the Setup menu tab though and your unit will have to be in the “Advanced” User Mode menu setting to see it though. The User Mode menu is also under the Setup menu tab. The coordinate you posted looks to be in the DD.ddddd format so that is the setting you need to select under the Position Format menu.
While you are setting menus; you may want to set the Map Datum format to match the map datum that these waypoints can from or they will end up being farther off. Look for the “N American 1983” setting in the Map Datum menu.
