Suspiciously like that guy over there on the left. Only better. Charlie "One should never begin a journey by heading in the wrong direction."

5.0 has been updated to 5.2. For those who care, the changes are: Internationalized MapSource to support multiple languages. Localized the program into French, German, Italian, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, Chinese (Traditional), and Chinese (Simplified). Fixed issue where the Vertical Track Profile was incorrectly displaying the distance zoom scale in the horizontal axis label when the scale had a decimal point in the value. Fixed issue where the File menu’s 'Open From' and 'Save To' menu options were not disabled during real-time tracking. Fixed issue where program would fail when F3 was used to view recently found results and the result was an address. Fixed issue where the route dialog would fail if an 'undo' or 'redo' action resulted in an empty route and the user clicked on the driving directions tab. Fixed issue in the route dialog where an attempt to add consecutive duplicate via points in the route resulted in the undo button being activated—but when the user clicked on the button, nothing was undone. Fixed issue where the autorouter was sometimes adding unnecessary loops when calculating autoroutes. Fixed issue where, if a route had non-consecutive duplicate via points and the user tried to delete any one of these duplicates, MapSource would always delete the first one, even if the first waypoint was not the one selected. Fixed issue in MapSource where the redo button was not being disabled correctly when the user performed a waypoint insertion and the redo button was already enabled. Fixed issue where MapSource would have a pronounced delay if the user tried to insert a waypoint into a route with no insertion point selected in that route. Fixed issue where copyright strings would get cut off if they were greater than the width of the page while printing or print previewing maps. Added the ability to word-wrap these copyright strings to the page width. Fixed issue where the GPS tab’s compass would be drawn to overlap the position field in some cases. Fixed issue where some grid selections would cause the position text to get cut off in the position field of the GPS tab. Fixed issue where the select device button would become unavailable if the selected COM port was already in use by another device when the user tried to start real-time tracking. Fixed issue where the seabed nature text was not being correctly centered in BlueChart products. Fixed various issues that caused the finder to not perform some searches correctly. Fixed issue where the undo button would be erroneously enabled when maps were automatically removed from an mps file. This issue could cause MapSource to fail if the user then clicked on the undo button. Fixed some translation issues in Japanese resources. Fixed issue where autoroutes were not correctly following the roads in the detailed maps in some parts of the middle of long routes. Fixed issue where portions of larger copyright logos were being cut off when MapSource showed these images after the display of the MapSource splash screen in map products that have logos. Fixed issue where map transfers to the iQue 3600 actually required twice the size of the map data being transferred in free disk space for a successful transfer. Enjoy!

I'm in. Thanks! Charlie "One should never begin a journey by heading in the wrong direction."

Actually... this is MORE than I need to know about oscillator drift! Charlie "One should never begin a journey by heading in the wrong direction."

Figure out the plot and let me know. Charlie "One should never begin a journey by heading in the wrong direction."

Was that a rant... or a waste of time? Charlie "One should never begin a journey by heading in the wrong direction."

So, I've been sticking to the SoCal Geocachers board for a while, but... Have a lot of people been asking for total finds? Seems like such an obvious request, and not that hard to do. But what do I know... Charlie "One should never begin a journey by heading in the wrong direction."

I'd still like to see a total number of finds... Charlie "One should never begin a journey by heading in the wrong direction."

I, too, have to log in each time I switch computers... Charlie "One should never begin a journey by heading in the wrong direction."

Dude, how come no one's recommending my cache: Heisler Hideaway Oh, wait. Guess I just did! (It's a ten minute walk from the Pageant) Charlie "One should never begin a journey by heading in the wrong direction."

I second EVERYONE's idea. Just waiting for those maps to work the way they did a year or so ago... Charlie "One should never begin a journey by heading in the wrong direction."

This product has been gone over many a time. Usually seems to come down to loose battery contacts - bending thsm a bit is what fixed mine. Good luck! Charlie "One should never begin a journey by heading in the wrong direction."

Yeah, I noticed it was gone this week as well. Truth be told, it never seemed useful anyway. Not enough info... Charlie "One should never begin a journey by heading in the wrong direction."

I've had the shutdown problem on and off. Finally I just bent the battery connection prongs out a bit further, and that seems to have fixed it. I think the general consensus in this and other threads pointed to a battery connection issue... Charlie "One should never begin a journey by heading in the wrong direction."

I've been having to log in all over the place. Three different computers... but it happens when I use the same computer twice, without going to a second. Pretty annoying... Charlie "One should never begin a journey by heading in the wrong direction."

I think maybe a lot of people should put their units down and spend some time thinking about something else for a day or two. The concepts of "harm" and "locationless" really don't overlap in the real world... Charlie "One should never begin a journey by heading in the wrong direction."

Never gonna happen. People have been suggesting a rating system since this site went up - myself included, at one time - but the consensus has always been negative. Reason: too subjective. I rate this response 5 stars. How about you? Charlie "One should never begin a journey by heading in the wrong direction."

Someone else can organize THIS one... Charlie "One should never begin a journey by heading in the wrong direction."

Yeah, I've checked out the site on my phone. All you get is coordinates. No description. As basic as it gets. I'd love to see it expended... Charlie "One should never begin a journey by heading in the wrong direction."

Truthfully, knowing who is on the list has never been a big concern to me... but it repeatedly turns up on the forums. So I vote YES - the owner of the cache should have access. Charlie "One should never begin a journey by heading in the wrong direction."
