Title says it really ...installed software - setting location (Choose town nearest you) Chose Exeter(am 25 miles SW) - can't seem to erase the word "Home " and shift it to where IO actually am.
Probably dead simple- but evading me right now- can someone please explain it in idiot-talk?
Dave,
Use File > Preferences > Home Station Data and enter you Latitude and Longitude in the boxes as it says.
You need decimal degrees, like:
51.12345 -1.54321
Minus Latitude means you are south of the equator, minus Longitude (like this example) means degrees west. You can use Google Earth to get your position or a GPS or any other form of online or paper map.
Just found this site via Google - put in your UK postcode and get lat/lon out - you don't need N or W but remember that you put a "-" minus for west.

Thanks - simple when you know how!
Dave,
As we've all said here on the forum, there's no such thing as a silly question as we are all learning :-)
