Default Homeport .... route building

For those that use Garmins new Homeport software and don't have Map Source.

Homeports Route Building Tool uses an anchor symbol by default to display route waypoints. The default anchor symbol cannot be changed or modified once the new route is built. Garmin software engineers are aware of this and will make a change to this in the up coming software update.

With that in mind there is a work around that can be used for those for that want something other than the anchor symbology.

Here's some videos that explain the simple process.
