The only GPSr that we have that does projections always does them from true north.

I will have to figure out how to change Gazzas geodetic calculator (on the web) in order to do magnetic north projections.

My idea is still in the rough stages--using the different norths for waypoint projection is just one idea I had, and it's all I can think of right now where there's three correct answers to the same problem (there's magnetic, true, and grid north).
