To show a list of waypoints sorted by symbol—with similar
symbols listed together—press the CURSOR PAD left to high-
light the SYMBOL column (shown at the far left without a
heading). This makes it easy, for example, to see all waypoints
using the fish symbol. To choose the desired symbol, press the
LEFT ARROW and RIGHT ARROW keys below the KEYPAD.
Note that waypoints with the same symbol are also sorted
alphabetically.
To show waypoints in alphabetical order, press the CURSOR
PAD left or right to highlight the NAME column. Waypoints
with a special character or a number as the first character
appear at the top of the list.
To show the waypoints near your present position, press the
CURSOR PAD left or right to highlight the DISTANCE column,
and those waypoints will appear in order at the top of the list.
The 961 automatically updates the DISTANCE column as you
continue to navigate. However, the order of the list won't be
resorted while you're displaying the list; you must leave and
return to viewing the WAYPOINTS screen to update the sort-
ing order.
Displaying local waypoints
To show the waypoints closest to your current position (also
called local waypoints), highlight the DISTANCE column, then
enter zeroes into the SEARCH field. The list then shows those
waypoints that are closest to your present position at the top
of the list.
To show a list of waypoints sorted by bearing, press the CUR-
SOR PAD right to highlight the BRG column. When sorted by
bearing, if you want to see all the waypoints to the east, for
example, look at the part of the list containing bearings near
°.

tinue to navigate. However, the order of the list won't be
