Two different ways to mark a spot and save them as a waypoint so yo can return to them later. Several different ways to return to them also, but I will just cover how to put the marks on the map now.
First way is the most simple way. You location if the Astro 430 is on and you have GPS signal is a Triangle on the map. If you park the truck and are standing beside it all you have to do is post the MARK button and from the list name it and then on the next page select done.
Second way to mark a spot and it can be any place on your map. Say your dog is trying to tree and you want to go back there later or there is just a spot on the map that you want to mark and you are not at that spot. Just scroll the cursor with the center navigation button to that point.
Hit Enter-Enter then Menu. It will ask you if you want to save it as a Waypoint and say yes. Later you can rename it or keep is as named by your astro. Now and you will hit go and get navigation lines from one point to another on your screen you can remove them by from any main page selecting Menu-Menu and then the last thing on that list is Tools. The next list you will be taken to starts with Find at the top. Select that and then Select Stop Navigation. That will remove lines from point A to point B but leave the marks/waypoints on the map. From that same page you can go to waypoint manger and select a point to navigate to and you can set it up as a straight line or turn by turn on the highway. if there is one.
