With the PN 40 can you see satellite photo imagery? As it looks on google earth? Is that downloadble to this unit?

Ok, So I have done this about 2 weeks. My find rate is about 20%
I thinking...I must be really lucky and guessing all the problematic cache sites or I don't have the "common sense" that everyone is referring to. Others have said When your close, put away the unit and start to look. So I have done that and it has yielded very little. If I am in the woods, what percentage of the time is it going to be up high in a tree? Will I ever have to push brush away or on hands and knees crawl through a sticker bush?
Please tell me the common locations to look when in the woods, near a tree, in a field, and road corners.
Do the more expensive units get you closer to the exact coordinates? Is within 8 feet normal. I have been right on top of the site according to my unit and it is nowhere.
Now on to other item. Is there a way to contact owner of cache to ask for a hint. Or let them know the site has been washed away by a river? or it is all under construction now. These are things I run into and am frustrated as to why I cant find the cache. IS it considered reasonable to ask for a tip from owner?
Thanks

in How do I...?

I have the PN-30. I have loaded about 600 caches onto it. I want to donwload groups of caches from the unit and can't seem to figure out how to do this. I can only delete one at a time. is there a way to batch erase or batch upload to this unit or does it have to be one at a time?
I tried to connect it to the delorme software through the computer but it is not easy to understand and I gave up.
Also, is there a way to download satellite views to the unit from the computer? I will need good instructions on how to do this. SOmeone told me you can.
ANy help for another PN-30 user would be great....
Thanks a bunch!
