  1. Hi All, I have followed the macro setup by CraigGiven to create pushpins in MSNT. When I run the macro in Gsac, I get the following near the end: ERROR CURRENT MACRO C:\GPS\GSAKmacros\Pushpins.txt ERROR IN MACRO AT LINE:111 EXPORT TYPE=SNT SETTINGS=PUSHPINS FILE=C:\GPS\PUSHPINS\TERRACACHES.CSV ERROR=>SETTINGS NOT FOUND:PUSHPINS MACRO WILL NOW ABORT Any ideas how to fix, this is my first try at filters & macros.
  2. I'm not from the U.S.A. but support the men & women who serve; my service was 1 year Canadian Army; presently 26 years with the Canadian Coast Guard....God Bless the Military.
  3. Only thing I can think of is the difference in altimeter readings; should show your height in feet at your location; which is used to get the correct reading for your area (corrected to sealevel ). Someone correct me if I'm wrong. I send weather observations every 3 hours on the ship I work on and we have to do the corrections from a chart for that given area to get sealevel just because the barometer is not calibrated for sealevel. Hope this helps you...Old Sailor
  4. On my Merdian Marine since upgrading to 5.40; with the backlight on the unit buzzes, but its not from the beeper thingy inside ( please DON'T ask me how I know that, you don't want to know....
  5. I just did a postal code search for Ingersoll ( N5C 2Y2 ) and came up with over1800 caches, if you now what postal code you need..... you will find plenty.....Old Sailor
  6. Copied mine to harddrive; jumpdrive and to an SD card; that won't happen to me again ....Many Thanks Embra note: your FAQ Link is excellent!!
  7. While doing a firmware update last night we had a power failure. When power was restored, my Meridian Marine lost its map. The screen says:UNIT CURRENTLY CONTAINS NO MAP! INITIATING MAP UPLOAD. Left it on all night, but nothing. I didn't make a backup before the upgrade; stupid me , other than contacting Magellan is there any fixes anyone know of?
  8. All I could comeup with for SV= System View.........Old Sailor
  9. Is there a way to change the icons in a Magellan Marine to to show something better for Geocaches, the ones in unit don't really have anything cool.
  10. Old Sailor here...newbe.found first cache today, still trying to get use to GPS ( Meridian Marine ). You'd think with working on a ship that a GPS would be secondhand; but not for me. Hi to all.....
