Douglas, GA here (southeast part of the state). Got into it in late 07 and haven't done much lately, but after doing some maintenance on a cache yesterday I'm ready to get back out there and find some!

Does TOMTOM have the same pedestrian capabilites that the NUVI has? Keep seeing people mentioning the NUVI here but none of the TOMTOMs. Thanks

Thanks. Checked an I am on WGS84. I'm going to try for another cache in the next day or so and see how that goes.

Thanks for the feeback Maury. I only tried one cache this weekend due to lack of time, and it was in a fairly heavy tree cover area, though in the past I haven't had much problem. I had a good signal lock (within 13 ft accuracy) it said, but I guess due to the tree cover, it would "skip" sometimes and not keep track of my location. I'm going to try for a more open cache or 2 this weekend and see how that goes. Also, though my TOMTOM allowed me to key in the coordinates to get to the general area, I don't think it'd guide me to the precise location. Does anyone use an auto TOMTOM? Thanks for the help. I'm clearly a newbie in need!

I just joined up with the site last week and tried to find my first cache this weekend with my old Garmin GPS12. It's just your basic, old GPS. Used to work great getting me to and from deer stands and such, but failed miserably Saturday while trying to find a cache. Just wondering if anyone else might be stuck in the Stone Age too and had any hints...or if I'm better off just updating to newer equipment.
