A. It is not possible to change the geodesic reference system of the GPS database. The WGS84 has been chosen because it is used by all the GPS receivers. If you display your maps in NAD27 or NAD83 in SoftMap, the software will take charge of the conversion of coordinates so that the data displayed is always at the right place on the map.
