you're right, a typo from me, mea culpa

the latitude N/S is correct
the longitude is biased W by ± 1°, correct that's more than 100 km

I confirm the position on the map (OSM or google) is OK

only the display in the track tab is completely wrong

screenshot1 shows the map, the position is ok
screenshot2 shows the track tab, the longitude is bad

it should be something close to W 002° 22.764
