a simple question about Longitude/Latitude

[mario123]

when using the internet site Maps of the world, street map search - powered by Multimap (http://www.multimap.com/maps/?qs=bt7+3df&countryCode=GB)

is it the first numbers or ones in the brackets i use?

Lat:54:34:34N (54.57612) Lon:5:55:43W (-5.92863)

Satellite Finder / Dish Pointing Calculator with Google Maps | DishPointer.com (http://www.dishpointer.com/) this works the same

Latitude: 52.5297?
Longitude: -1.8551?

is most common
