[OSM-newbies] RAW GPS data in JOSM

[Bob Hawkins]

Thanks, Harald, for the insight you provided.  While on the subject of coordinates, is there any method by which they can be altered for a node by typing?
 
As so often happens, I post a query, only to find an answer, following my own further investigation.
In this case, I found the answer to my first question, at least, in http://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/RicksHowToPage, for which, I thank him.
I believe, although I cannot replicate it at the moment, that a warning of some sort appeared when I first clicked 'Convert to data layer' that dissuaded me from carrying out the action.  With the comfort of someone else's advice, I proceeded through that action to a satisfactory conclusion.
