Haven't got RB fired up at the moment, but there is an option in Preferences to show or not show the 'Home' +

I hide mine and use the Custom Legend to just have '+' and not '+ HOME'

53.3634 N and 2.2353 W as u can see in the enclosed picture these are shown incorrect from the auto detect location tab

Use http://www.gpsvisualizer.com/geocode and take the first decimal value it gives you.

Easiest way to set your home location is to find it on the radar map, right click, and select "Set Home Location".  No need to known your Lat/Long.
