  1. Thanks everyone, next time I will try to get the window seat.
  2. I thought it would be neat to see what my Oregon showed while I was on a recent airplane flight. However I was unable to receive a signal. Does the body of the airplane block the signal? If not what might have been the reason that I could not recieve a signal at cruising altititude? I was on a commercial airliner sitting in the first row. Thanks
  3. Thanks for everyones input. I will check them out. Happy New Year.
  4. How do I pull up a list of New caches only? I did it once but can't remember how I did it. It showed new caches and caches that were going to be posted soon. Thanks
  5. I have an Oregon 400t. I hike alot and like to measure my distance. I have reset everything several times, I have kept my GPS off until I am at the trailhead etc. but for some reason my track records always put my start location at my house. My distance totals are never correct. I can't seem to isolate just the trail I am on. Any suggestions I can do? Also I mark my start point at the trailhead as waypoint 001.
  6. Thanks for your help. I wasn't even thinking about using the fitness mode. Usually I am caching during my trail runs and have kept my GPS set in geochache profile. I appreciate the input.
  7. I run and like to track my routes. However everytime I do the track seems to include and show the distance from my house and then my route as well. I can't get an accurate running distance with this happening. My question is : What do I need to undo, do, reset or set so as to only have a track of what I am currently on? I don't turn my gps on until I am at my run location.
  8. I have the Garmin Oregon. I played the tutorial that was preloaded to my unit. I completed it and got the unlock code. When I tried to upload it gave me an error message. The instructions say the file should be a gws file. Mine is stored as a gwc file. Anyway to correct this, will this happen with other cartridges? Thanks
  9. Thank you all for your input. I did download EasyGPS and can now download either the loc or gpx files. I was able to download as geocache all along but I thought the loc and gpx files would show in my waypoint file on my GPS but they show under geocaches as well. Thanks again.
  10. I am confused on what to do. I have an Oregon 400t and Garmin trip and waypoint manager software loaded on my computer. I can download geocaches to my Oregon without problem but cannot load loc or gpx files. What is my missing piece so I can send waypoints to my waypoint manager from my Oregon? Thanks for your help.
  11. Thanks Kevin and Chris, those last tidbits helped me locate my member number. However, the message I get on GSAK is [ERROR[ Setupdienumdeviceinterfaces: no more data. Is the Garmin USB Unit 0 powered up and connected? I have Garmin and USB checked in the setup box.
  12. Sorry about this last error post. Getting to learn this forum system. Thank you both for your input. I will check on GSAK.net. I don't get anything but a hand to click on my user name when I hover my mouse. I'll keep trying. Thanks for posting my number.
  13. Hi. I am new to geocaching but have been having alot of fun since I started. I downloaded the GSAK program to get waypoints by pocket queries . I can load them onto my computer no problem. They will show up on the GSAK table but I cannot download them from the GSAK table to my GPS. I get a message that it is not detecting my USB connection to my GPS. I can download caches directily from geocaching.com to my gps using my usb connection and not have any problem. Anyone have any idea what I can do to solve this problem? Also how do I find my geocaching.com i.d. number? The GSAK popup box asks for it before trying to download. Thanks
