GPS V - shortcut to Home tip

[Gecko]

If you have a waypoint in your GPS V called 'Home' - hit the find button twice and the unit will automatically begin routing you to go home.
I don't know if this works on other Garmin models but it works on my GPS V.

Gecko,

Top Tip!!

You wouldn't believe the number of times I've tried to scroll through the menus on the move with gloved hands trying to navigate home again! I guess this is the old RTFM* syndrome....

I didn't find this in the manual - it was an accident , fumbling around I hit Find twice and up popped a screen which asked if I wanted to navigate a route to Home.....so I said yes and it works. I then did some searching on the net and found it confirmed elsewhere so it wasn't just something with my magic touch ....it is very handy isn't it
