Just like to publicly say "thank you" to Team Slytherin
I bought one of their gps , paid for it on Tuesday and it was here by Wednesday
Like I said "the wife thinks I'm mad and the kids think its cool"

"If you can read this you are within 3 seconds of arc!"
"Only a fool breaks the '3 seconds of arc' rule."
Whats that then ?

My car looks as if someone has emptied a wastebasket in it
To achieve this effect I just feed the kids on the way home from school
Somehow makes my car less disirable , that and the fact its an L reg escort

That was it ! Cheers

Not trying to hijack your thread here but I read that the Garmin Rhino can show other gps users in the area , is this right or have I misread the spec.
I know its not available over here in the UK due to some law or other that e will end up paying tax on

Seems to work fine on my Nokia 3510i

Excellent I knew this moby was good for something apart from the wife ringing me up in the pub

I'd just like to say that I watched a programme on Discovery last night about 3 blokes who went off to walk to the south pole
One of the blokes was using a yellow garmin etrex
so I guess if its good enough for the polar explorers ..............

Ah didnt read the small print , silly old me !

for those who are GPs embarressed at the mo ( ie GPS less _)

Is that a good price ?
Apologies if this is against any forum rules BTW

Ooh do you do voodoo ?

Well I joined the RAF in 88 , left in 97 and joined the Signals

"tree fellers" are you sure it was tree now , not two or four
< stands by for kicking for Irish cachers >
-
Bit worried about that actually
I PM'd him just to make sure my waypoint was'nt too far off
-
The start point is actually on a prominant feature of the landscape
I can wait ......I can wait

Never wondered what Saddam was doing down that hole in Iraq ?

Hi , I was wondering if all you uber cachers out there could answer me a question.
When you hid your first ever cache how many times did you have to update the description , clues , waypoint etc until someone found it ?
Did you just sit and snigger at the DNF's ?
-
I tend to disagree , I'm sure I have seen ariels in the middle of airfields with no access roads
-
Sorry , to re-itterate, any bearing I give under military circumstances will have to be in mills rather than degrees. I dont have a problem myself but people I give a bearing to may !
-
Looks like some sort of enclosure for an airfield beacon
Anyone with access to a nav map should be able to verify it
Unless it IS a flying saucer landing site of course
-
Can anyone tell me if most GPs units will display bearings in mils as well as degrees ?
I am of a military bent so hve to work in mils

Someone keeps taking the pens from my desk
Who is it ?? Own up !!!
Dumb Question
in How do I...?
Posted
Right ! Why does my etrex still work even if its inside my jacket pocket
I thought it needed a clear view of the sky
( see I said it was dumb _)
