    Pocket Queries For Benchmarks?

    in Benchmarking

    Posted

    Aren't you supposed to extract the Zip file and get a .dat file; then open the dat file with bmgpx

     

    Then you get a gpx file that you can drag and drop into GSAK

     

    This is what works for me. Nothing happens by dragging and dropping into bmgpx.

    HELP!!!

    does anyone have an idea what is going on with the Lewiston/Lapwai signature event dedication of the 12" disk? :grin:

    I have gone to the events, looked through all the schedules I could get my hands on, talked to lots of people in the park service and the USGS with NO results not one person knows anything about a Benchmark being placed in this area :( have they just forgotten us here? :)

     

    Intermountain,

     

    The Idaho surveyors have been lacking in participation, I know that they have set various monuments around the state, but even the NGS state advisor has not been able to get their locations to me. The groups have not gotten their bluebook information to him and so he has not been able to locate them. I have been in touch with him to find these disks so that I could stop and see them while I am in Idaho on business. I have had no luck finding any information and any disks.

     

    Sorry,

    CallawayMT

     

    You can find some information about the Idaho sites on this web site.

    Hi Paul,

     

    Thanks for the info, been out in the back yard and along the driveway getting lots of pings and beeps. Looks like a lot of loose change buried over the years. Can't wait to get out on the Benchmark trail soon.

    After reading this thread and locating several benchmarks lately I stopped by the local Radio Shack to see if they still have the Bounty's on sale. Was surprised to that they had all 3 models still on the floor, so I grabbed the 3300 for the sale price of $111, great buy! Still have a question about headphones, if anyone can suggest what type and where to buy, I would sure appreciate it.

    Also sent an e-mail to Ladycacher requesting that she keep the money and not refund. She has greatly contributed to the Geocaching community!

     

    Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

    One missing Oklahoma coin that had slipped out of the mailer.

     

    Got the mailer on monday with a large enough tear in the end to allow one coin to slip out. After showing the ripped package and a coin to the mail guy on Tuesday, he remembered seeing the loose coin in a bin. He was kind enough to place it in an envelope and send it in today's mail. My lucky day :D
