  1. What is strange is that you may be the only one posting that has working dynamic trending with the unit turned OFF. Couple that with some including myself maybe not understanding the problem/display correctly and Garmin maybe in denial that there is a problem and I'd just stick to your guns and wait for the dust to settle. One thing I'm doing different in my second test is to have tracking turned on. I normally leave tracking turned off. But the unit is stationary. It will be very unreasonable (unacceptable) if the unit has to be moving in order for unit off trending to work. Is your tracking turned on or off during this last test of yours? Tracking is off on my unit.
  2. Please post your questions/comments on problems with the new release in this thread. http://forums.Groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showtopic=199518 Closeing this thread please use the other. Thank you.
  3. If you have the GC#s of those missing caches please email them to me via my profile. I will be happy to look into this for you.
  4. I'm running 2.60. Web update says I have the latest everything loaded. ___________________________________________________________________ In reply to the comment from someone else that it was on, it WAS off during the times I stated. As I said in my post " It was off the entire time between 10:41 am and 3:26 pm MDT." If people do not believe it was off that does not change the fact that it is working. As a Groundspeak Lackey I have nothing to gain by making up stuff. It was off. Again I will state that I sent mine in because the save was not working. I got this one back with the claim that it did work on this one. Its strange to have to defend that it is working.
  5. Ok I know what you are saying but maybe this one will show it better. The unit was turned off at 10:41 today and turned on again at 3:26. Just before it was turned off from the last set of pictures. Just after it was turned on again. It was off the entire time between 10:41 am and 3:26 pm MDT. It still shows what I am used to seeing when it saves. This one has more curves. Most of the time it looks like this. We had some really stable weather on the last shots. I did call the local weather office and they confirmed my reading on the one no one likes. Hopefully now that things are moving around weather-wise here this will help people believe.
  6. Since the contents are between the reviewer and the cache owner it really does not matter. The number is what ever it takes to get the cache published. No more, no less. Thanks for asking.
  7. I always laugh when people say the 60csx is so bug free. When it came out, OMG, the bloody thing was a mess of broken features. Interesting and it sort of makes sense. I wonder if the CO is left with a clear view of the sky whether it will gain lock fast enough to record a track point when it does wake up. I ran my CO and OR last night side by side and the OR seemed to work but the CO did not -- straight line from begin to end. I wonder if the HotFix allows it to get a lock faster than the CO so that it works properly. This might explain why Michael is getting some points -- depending on where he left the GPS maybe on a few occasions it woke up and was able to get lock before going back to sleep. GO$Rs Its not a case of a few points. This one is working. I can pick any time during the graph and double check it with the local weather office and its the same reading they had. So its getting the right point every time it wakes up not just on some. we had a gradual rise then an increase just like it shows on my pics. Its off and saving now. The pressure is falling with a few spikes now. I will post tonight the next picture and I am sure it will show the same thing that the pressure actually did. This unit was returned and replaced because it did not save. This one is saving. I'm sorry you guys are not seeing the same thing on your end but this one is working. It has a good view of the sky its in a room with a vaulted ceiling so there is no attic to go through and I am at 5922 feet which is higher than most people. We never had the problems others have with lock in Denver.
  8. Sorry guys but My pics show exactly what happened around here during that period. we had a rather stable weather front and the local weather showed the same basic trend during the same time. I have also had it where it showed major swings during the same time frame. Its just been a real stationary front around here during the test time. I just took another one and its still tracking the current rise. This shows that it has changed the same way the pressure is rising here in Denver since the one I took last night. This is the same starting point as before plus of minus a few minutes but with a different scale for the vertical. This is the one I took a few minutes ago. I also checked it against the local weather and its tracking the pressure changes over the last 12 or so hours since the last one I posted. Sorry guys. Its working. I know there are those that really don't want it to work so they can complain to Garmin but this is working and tracking the current weather pattern in Denver. Remember its going to be slightly less jagged as it only takes 4 reading an hour while its "off" as opposed to the more constant logging it does when on. The graph I posted while rising is not linear you can see that there are differences in the rate of rise at times. a "linear" line would be straight.
  9. Please write contact@geocaching.com they can help you with this. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
  10. From the second page of this thread.
  11. I claim the prize whatever it is. This post has pictures that it does work.
  12. Mine works. When powered off it tracks the pressure list is should. Sometimes when I turn it on it shows the steady dropping line for about 12-15 hours before. If I leave it alone in about 15 minutes its like it refreshes and the info is shown correctly. cant explain why but it does self correct and it does track when its off. FYI this unit is a replacement for one that did not save while powered off. This is when I started the unit with fresh batteries and set it to save. Unit was then turned off and left alone This is when I powered it back on and looked. It had saved the pressures and displayed them correctly. I set the display to show the whole range I had saved. Normally I set the hrs at 3. Sorry those that dont't believe it works but it does.

  21. Just because you can not verify something does not mean it is not true. For you it was working. This was not the case with everyone.
  22. As stated on the cache edit page. "You can use HTML in any of the description fields below with the exception of JavaScript and other embedded code. "
  23. Its still there for me. Thanks! Your query has been modified You can preview the search on the nearest cache page. I believe they are talking about on the main query page, where all your query`s are listed. the icon next to "preview query in Google Maps" icon is dead. OK that is broken. Ill add it to the list. thanks Correction. The Google maps are not working on that page and the regular link seems to work for routes but not normal PQs. Ill point it out to Nate.
