Thanks Garry,

As I told I'm new to FME and I'm unsure jumping to beta before knowing
what's where.
Actually I managed with DMS to decimals ...
I had my D, M, S as separate attributes of the features so:
First - two Calculators - one for longitude and one for latitude
Then - Feature Merger - latitude on Requestor port and longitude on
Supplier one. The Join Attribute for both is set to the ID of my initial
features.
There were two problems I had to cope with. The first was letting
calculators calculate in other than integer values by dividing not to 60
but to 60.0 (very strange for me but I never touched TCL before)
The next one was the need of feature merger. 
These days Jason Birch wrote something about the need of 'Jedi training'
for FME users (it was in the topic for Compound Transformers). I totally
agree with this classification. It took me a day trying different
transformers until finding this simple solution. (Yes it's my fault
being new to FME ;-)
So that's why I need these files. To see whether I'm going to classify
for the Jedi rank soon ;-) (Seriously, it's important for me as a
beginner)

May the Power be with you!
Dimitar

If you have a look in the latest beta you will find a transformer 
called DMSCalculator which I think will probably do the trick for 
you (I'm using Build 1613 but I see 1616 is out).

Related transformers are DECIMALDEGREESCALCULATOR and ANGLECONVERTOR 
are also worth a look if you like playing with angle stuff.

The transformer modifications I've found to be the coolest so far is 
the SPATIALFILTER ... not restricted to bounding box now ... haven't 
tested but it is on the list.
