Both in NGYM 3 super-mod and GWX the coordinates for Ferrol are wrong. This is how they should look:

[Location 474] might be a different number according to your own installation
;Long=-8.215
;Lat=43.46048
;Heading=0 ; El Ferrol
Long=-8.231
Lat=43.47948
Heading=180
OnLand=false
ShowOnMap=true
FileName=Penang
LocationName=El Ferrol del Caudillo

History: Today, Ferrol is the only official name for the city. Since 30th September 1938 to 5th October 1984 its official name was El Ferrol del Caudillo. El Caudillo (Fuhrer, Duce) was dictator Francisco Franco, born in Ferrol.
I don't know how the Germans (or the Allies) reflected that name in their documents, but in Spain at that time it was El Ferrol del Caudillo.
El Ferrol never existed officially here. So, it's either Ferrol or El Ferrol del Caudillo.
