  1. Might I suggest that you join in with us in the hiding side? With two hidden in a year, I'm sure you've got some great ideas stored up for the rest of us. I'm looking forward to it! I will be doing that in the near future. I wish i had more time to hide and find more. Scheduling is a PITA right now.
  2. Thanks for the answers. How do you log PMO's if you are not a PM?
  3. I am a premium member and just moved back to Smyrna TN after two years in Florida. I found that most of the caches here are premium only. I had my brother start up an account to log his finds with me but he is only a free member so he cant even search for most of them. Why are there so many here like this?
  4. I do not know anyone in this area that geocaches and am moving soon. What would be the best way to transfer ownership of a cache to someone in the area that would be willing to take it?
  5. I was wondering how long that was going to last. lol
  6. I just bought a magellan triton 400. The stock map really sux. I have no clue what I am doing when it come to getting new maps on here for free. Can someone point me in the correct direction for getting maps and converting them to .mgi map files for this thing? I have found a free topo map of may area at http://www.gpsfiledepot.com/maps/view/123/ but its an installer file that has lots of .imgs in it. Im on a windows pc btw. Thanks in advance.
  7. So i was in Wal-mart and saw a Magellan triton 400 on sale. I got it. I have to say that I love it. It is way more accurate than my iPhone.
  8. After putting some thought into it I will follow everyones advice and get a handheld a little later on. I think I may go with the Magellan eXplorist GC but im going to read some more reviews first. Thanks everyone
  9. Very tight budget. I sold a few gift cards on ebay and have $45 in my paypal account. I think i will hold out till i can afford a better one. Was looking into a Magellan toughcase for my iphone but if I by it used im sure i will never be able to get the update to allow geocaching seeing as you have to ship it back to them. I may go with the bad-elf gps for the iphone. It's $99 on amazon and it has good reviews but i will need to wait. Using the 3gs's gps really makes me mad when i can never get close to GZ cause it jumps even with open sky.
  10. Anyone know where I can get a new or used gps thats better than my iphone for $45 icluding shipping?
  11. Thanks. I'm a noob to gps and cords. I didn't think to try that.
  12. I hope this is the right place to post this. I posted my first cache and the FTF says my cords are off by about 100 feet. He gave me the correct cords but all he gave me was N 935, W 505. How can i convert that into something that the site will let me enter so I can update my cache?
  13. I am using an iPhone 3gs and live in Florida. Most of the trails here are thick covered with palms and such and I can never get ground zero with it. I want to purchase a very good but inexpensive Bluetooth GPS receiver to link to the phone. Any recommendations?
