Setting Home location on Nav II

[HondaMan]

Hi

Can someone tell me how to set the home location on the Nav II before I chuck it out the window?

Doesn't seem obvious from any of the menus, checked the manual, saved it as a waypoint thinking that I could then mark it as 'Home' but can't find where its set.

Thanks in advance.

In mapsource create a waypoint called "home", down load it to the GPS

Tried that?

Thanks John but done that, in my list of waypoints all I have is one waypoint called HOME.
But when I go to Route, then Route home it still calculates a route to the previous owners house 350 miles away....

I guess you have already tried deleting all the waypoints, the have you tried resetting the unit then? And then reloading the waypoints etc?

Cheers John tried a full reset and loaded the waypoint Home and its now working.
Not sure if it was the reset or could the waypoint be case sensitive??? Surely not. I will have a play with it a bit more.

BTW, no mention in the manual that I could see and I am familiar with proper GPS' not just Satnavs if you know what I mean. It aint an obvious thing to do but I like the unit in general.

Cheers.
