  1. I saw the triangle, but the line never showed up!!!

     

    if t's anything like a Garmin Rino, the line won't show up till you are in navigation mode to that point. go into your way point list find the point, select it and hit the goto button, the line should show up on the map if you cycle to it(map)

     

    if you have a pan map function, you may beable to use that also. by panning the map to the point hit the enter/selct button and select goto button from the screen.

     

    hope thios helps

  2. good point!. i never bothered to check the one's that i,ve done. I hope Hell's Fish will continue, it was one of the first few that I did last year while recovering from my 2nd spinale injury. (started the Geocaching for the exersize/rehabilitation).

  3. I've added notes, but only on the ones that have had no finds as of recent.

    there are a copule that are unknown right now.

     

    using SA2005 I entered in the ~ area of the WCFP and have 9 caches that are possably removed or in danger of.

    there may be more, as I haven't done the parks to the west of Rockford yet.

  4. good point! I wounder if it has anything to do with a lot of Forest preserves removing caches without any notification, as I been reading the forums it seems this is happing across the country.

     

    would be nice to know what issue #156707 was all about.

  5. Here in Winnebago County, the WCFPD up and confiscated all the caches within the Forest Preserves without warning.

     

    when did this happen? I've been out for awhile with a broken back and had planed on Geocaching for the exersize like I did the last time I broken my back.

  6. just a few thought's

     

    what would happen if say 100+ people submitted a request form to place a cache in said park, every week? (maybe even for the same spot?)

     

    I see that a CITO event was held last year, what about sendding them a bill for services rendered by the people who attended?

     

    if the parks charge for vehical, and camping spots, what would happen if there was a boycott, pickett line, a peacefull demonstration, fliers, billboards, ect... done.

     

    a lot of things can be done, but will anyone do it? will they do it in a way that doesnt cause more friction?

     

    one last thought on a new cache.

    turn the ranger into a moving geocache (catch the Ranger, photo-op) :unsure: (not kidding, this comes from HAM radio, DF'ing a moving signal) and post the location on where he was last seen/caught.(would that be considered a catch and release program? :huh: )

  7. The upgrade is hardware dependant, it has to have the hardware to flash a eeprom in the unit, most older units don't have this below a certain Version of software, it has nothing to do with the type of proccesor. it can be done but is beyond the scope of this question and envoles knowlegde in electronics,assembly language, and circuit modification all of which if done would disqualifiy it under FCC part 15 lic.
