  1. Hi Cachers (of Cyprus),

     

    I'll be on vacation on Cyprus in early November. Of course I want to hunt some caches and look for interesting places. Currently I'm trying to find 4 adress on Cyprus but without luck.

     

    Can someone show me the 4 adress on a map?

     

    Zachariadou 10, Larnaca

     

    Onasagorou Street 59A, 1011 Nicosia

     

    Ermou 5, Paphos

     

    Vasileos Constantinou 62, Limassol

     

    It would be great if someone could point them on a map for me.

     

     

    Thanks for your help.

  2. Hi there,

     

    I'm looking for a handheld that uses more than just GPS. So I found out that the new etrex series also uses the russian glonass system. I'd like to know if there are other handhelds that use other systems than GPS. Maybe all of them?

     

    Thanks for your help.

    I am not sure what you are looking for. There are a number of units that use GLONASS to add more satellites to the unit's capability. The iphone 4s and above -- as well as many other smartphones -- the Garmin GLO, Oregon 600. and Monterra come to mind. There are probably other manufacturers as well. Magellan uses GLONASS with some of its high-end survey units, but I have not looked to see if it is implemented in handhelds for caching. Many other units will use WAAS (Wide Area Augmentation System) in addition to the standard GPS satellites. Galileo is currently being built, but I am sure that will be supported by various units as well.

     

    I'm looking for a real handheld, no phone. I'd like to use it for geocaching, hiking and survival tours.

     

    Is anyone in the know what the military is using?
