  1. Hi

    To start with stick with a traditional cache and read some of the logs first which will give you an idea if it’s an easy find or not. Regular size caches will probably be easier to find at first than a micro.

    There will be an event cache (a get together with cachers in a pub) toward the end of January in the Woking area so look out for that and you can pick up all the info you need, and a pint. 

    Good luck

  2. I have been shown an Ipaq Rx5935 and think that it would be great for paperless caching.

    There are several in the series Rx5900 5910 5915 5930 5965 and so on but -

    Whats the difference if anything between them please.

    I have searched Google all night and can't find an answer

     

    Also the Ipaq 214 seems to be the latest kit, and not much more expensive than the rx5935. Should I get the bang up to date thing and add a gps to it.

     

    My method of geocaching is just a printout and a map from Google. I have never used a gps.

     

    Thanks

    Allan

    I don’t know the difference between all the 5900 series but have a rx5935 myself as do a lot of cachers I know, (rx5720 exactly the same but no wifi)

    With memory map, and MMsirfstar download (free) it’s a fantastic caching tool. Depends on your budget but they are often on eBay at a good price.

  3. Having started the church micro series I agree that the caches should not be in the churchyard. Coordinates are not always bang on and people will poke around were they should not.

    ALL 50 of my church micros are hidden outside churchyards and if people need to go to the church I make it obvious were to go ie seat,information board, but even that looks suspect now!

    I would encourage anybody wishing to expand on this series to keep to the guidlines and find a suitable hide nearby.
