Narrative:

Our clearance via the teterboro 6 SID was put into the GPS prior to taxi. Normal night time departure. On the climbing left hand turn; 280 heading at two thousand feet; departure cleared us to intercept the col 350 radial to col; then as filed. Cyn 350 radial was put into the GPS in error. ATC stated that we should be on the col 350 intercept to col and that we were 4 miles off course; to now fly heading 120 to intercept the radial; then direct col. We stated that we had the wrong identifier in and were correcting now. No other communications were made other than the hand off to the next controller.
