I may be having a problem with my Etrex Yellow. After I boot up and page to the second screen, there are dots randomly placed across the screen. I don't recall that they have been there in the past. Is my unit circling the drain?

I'm looking for the coordinates for 5 Rathbeale Road - Swords - Co Dublin I don't expect anyone to go there to take them for me, but if you know how i can obtain them I would appreciate a note. I'm about to travel to Ireland (from the US) for a brief vacation and want to find a cache or two within walking distance of this address.

When my Extrex Yellow is searching for the satellites there are 4 dots on the screen representing satellites and four lines connecting the dots to a figure representing me and my Etrex. Do the 4 dots on the screen represent exactly 4 satellites that I'm connected with, or is it possible that I'm linked to some number fo satellites other than 4? Just wondering.

Please identify the name of a cache listed in the web site which is located in Nässjo .

I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed - just a beginner at this activity. What is the difference between "grabbing" and "retrieving" a travel bug. The primer here on the web site isn't clear to me.

At one time I could request a map of an address on Mapquest and it would include the coordinates along with a map of the immediate area. I no longer see the coordinates when I use Mapquest. Is there a way to request that info?

I'm about to buy an Etrex and need some info. On the Etrex Yellow is it possible to input coordinates and then have the unit direct me to that spot, or near that spot?

When using the Etrex Yellow is it necessary to be moving to get a decent reading, or can I turn it on a get a reading right where I am?
