I am what is classified as a newbie but I have some serious symptoms that maybe you could help me to find out what is wrong with me. I go to cook I use tupperware,I go to use my mobile phone I grab my gpsr,I try to put the gpsr down I break out into a cold sweat and start to shake,I try to drive to work and find myself inexplicably heading for the nearest cache.worst of all I,ve bought all these little trinkets I have no use for that I stick in my backpack which by the way I am unable to remove from my back.Is something wrong with me maybe you can help me please? don,t touch my dog there he doesn,t like it

Hey this wasn,t started by a quote "is the opposite of a newbie an oldie" was it? don,t touch my dog there he doesn,t like it

I used to work for an s menzel here in australia-a relative perhaps? don,t touch my dog there he doesn,t like it

I I think think you you all all are are seeing seeing double double! ! don,t touch my dog there he doesn,t like it

I think just by these posts you can tell who the elitists are.As a newbie myself I found it shameful that someone could cast judgement on others about a question they have asked looking for help.It would seem that there is only a few humble enough to genuinely have a concern about helping those same said newbies and at the same time promote the sport and not themselves.Leads me to question who are the beer swilling dog kicking kid neglecting wifebashers? don,t touch my dog there he doesn,t like it

quote:Originally posted by Dunedin:I do a bit of metal detecting in my spare and decided to get a GPS with a view to plotting finds and locating sites. Whilst researching handheld GPS's, the internet led me here. When I open my stocking on xmas day to hopefully find an etrex venture, I think the metal detecting will have to wait a few months because I've got a list of caches that long lined up! PS - lots of metal detectorists are talking about the uses of GPS, and as both hobbies are about treasure hunting, theres bound to be some crossover, probably both ways! I also purchased my gpsr to use while detecting as I know many others have.I met one cacher yesterday that detects as well. the guy has the same gpsr and lives in the same town.how coincedental(is that how you spell that)is that! don,t touch my dog there he doesn,t like it

to someone like me dosn,t matter what co-ords mean.so putting the unit in UTM makes about as much sense as a peeing competition BUT-in UTM I have found to be super acurate don,t touch my dog there he doesn,t like it

actually it was utedude who showed me how to use UTM while I met him at a cache,this system is totally awesome and as I use the same unit-magellan gps 310 I compared the acuracy on a few landmarks and was astounded that it puts me less than 3feet from my mark as opposed to 30 feet!!!!! don,t touch my dog there he doesn,t like it

If you are concerned about spreading diseaese from snapping one off in the outdoors try carrying a small quantity of disinfectant with you and pour it over your um scat.small bottles can be purchased and easily carried. don,t touch my dog there he doesn,t like it

I used UTM to find my first cache today and put me approx 1 metre from cache.how good is that? don,t touch my dog there he doesn,t like it
