  1. As of today 17:12 EST this is still an issue. There is a partial fix using Notepad to Replace all occurrences of "/1/0/1" with "/1/0" in the GPX files and then use CR to send the edited GPX file to PN-XX. However, this works only to a point. Import of the subsequent file shows the cache OK but does NOT properly show the cache name! It is not clear if the associated waypoints are imported. This appears to be an issue of lack of communication between Delorme and GC. Does anyone have any insight if there is a fix in the works by one or both?
  2. While I'm new at geocaching I, like others, routinely encounter discrepancies between the posted coordinates, Google maps, Google Earth, and reality. As I'm an experienced aircraft and marine navigator I've wondered about the lat/lon accuracy of both Google Maps and Google Earth. Does anyone have any insight about this? I've noticed with Google Earth that a single geocache will 'jump' around the map as the map is zoomed in/out. I assume this is an artifact of the software and so I don't use Google Earth much to help me find caches. In Google Maps this 'jumping' does not seem to occur. Yet Google Maps reports cache locations other than where the cache, in fact, is. This could be an issue with the cache's posted coordinates OR it could be an issue with Google Maps. Does anyone have any insight into the lat/lon accuracy of Google Maps?
  3. I've recently become interested in Geocaching and live in Sudbury. If interested please drop me an email.
