Notes

[IMPORTANT: The maps and charts will usually appear in a separate window of your graphic web browser; you can move that new window (which may appear directly on top of the old one with the text) to the side and view the map as you read, and then dismiss it when you are done (the BACK command will probably not work as you expect within that window).]
