{SOLVED} Convert Lat/Long Dec to Deg & minutes
#4

Node Code would be great if you have it  Big Grin

Thanks

OK so after several hours with google I have put together two (crude) nodes. One for Latitude and one for Longitude
They convert Degrees/Decimal Degrees (as per signalK key) to Degrees/Minutes/Decimal Minutes (to 3 decimal places)
Tests for N/S E/W and inserts "N/S" or "E/W" as appropriate  
If you see any mistakes or errors please let me know
