    Gps Seemed To Go Wacko

    in How do I...?

    Posted

    I found that if I keep on walking until I am within 20 t0 25 feet the unit starts bouncing

    and just plain goes nuts and then I find I want past the cache by 100 to 150 feet.

    Now what I do is stop at 100 feet and stay still and do not turn just leave the unit

    pointed straight ahead for a minute and then walk half the distance and stop again.

    And as the day goes on I replace the batteries with a fresh recharged ones.

    This seems to help but is not a cure all.

    Ammo Can? Can They Rust?

    In places all over Europe and SouthEast Asia they still find ammo cans in the ground

    from WW II and the ammo in them is still in good ready to fire condition.

    And sadly they also find mines and unexploded bombs in the same way

    Hundreds die each year from a war that's been over for 60 years,

    The VOR in my post has a hiking trail that goes by it at the most 75 feet and sits within

    200 feet of a soccer field.

    And as far as a security risk or a danger if disabled they are Navigation AIDS Note the

    AID part. The airport does not relay solely on any one aid for navigation there are

    many other devices used in conjunction with all the others ' If one goes down the rest

    keep on working independently. So this would be low level on a security risk.

    Check this link out Now this could be a risk but the Government does not think so.

    http://www4.passur.com/bos.html it shows flights in almost real time .

    But that does not mean that the local police don't see it as such so be careful and use

    Your common sense.

    I became a premium member because a bunch of locale Biker Cachers surrounded

    me

    at a decoy cache in a dark alley. They threatened to give me a severe Indian sun burn

    and a wedggie up to My ears if I did not pay up! :unsure:

     

     

     

     

    *lol* just kidding for those who believe everything they read.

    RIMFIRES!

    Yes the Sako is a fine weapon and lots of us have taken squirrels with The Ruger I

    have two myself. But what are You gonna do if one of them decides to Charge? Huh

    then what? You need no less then a 30-30 or a 30-06 I use a Remington 700 BDL

    and always carry my Ruger GP101 .357 as back up.

    Those suckers have mean teeth and can leap 20 feet in a single bound I have seen one

    run down a black bear and chew it to bits and let me tell You it wasn't a pretty site to

    see.

    Sometimes they travel in packs! the leader is surrounded by others called RM's

    that stands for Really Mean' and they will go for the jugular.

    So please be careful with those small caliber fire arms. :D
