  1. I just tried mine, clicking on the word 'Why?' I get this, which I assume is correct https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=29&pgid=558
  2. Thank you. That is what I thought. I think that I already know the unlock code. An educated guess based only on the detective souvenir. ?
  3. Simple question: is level 4 a requirement find 35 extra geocaches or another 13 to add to the 22 already found in levels 1 through 3?
  4. Ben, Hi. Alan here from the Isle of Man. On the topic of encouraging newbies to the game, can more be done to explain the logging of trackables. We have so many going missing now after newbie visits.
  5. Just tried to add a write note log and the list only gave me 10 of my 45 friends to choose from. (Chrome on Mac)
  6. I have the same problem. Tried Chrome and Safari.
  7. Hi, this facilty is available in ProjectGC.
  8. Have you renewed your Premium membership Martin ?
  9. Having message display problems too and sometimes get 'Browser not supported' in Chrome on Windows 8 and MAC OS. Tried it on Safari on Mac and get the same issues i.e message threads missing and replies not showing in thread.
  10. Yes, this was on purpose. Although the new 600/650 models theoretically can hold millions of Geocaches the waypoint limit is still 2000. It doesn't take long to go over that limit when you send down a respectable number of Geocaches. By sending the additional waypoints as POIs, we get around the 2000 waypoint limit. GSAK is sending the child waypoints to the Oregon 650 and they appear in the 'Extras' menu when you select 'Where To'. Although GSAK appears to have named the files correctly (and also in the file headers) e.g GSAK_DBName_Final Location.gpi, GSAK_DBName_Parking Area.gpi, When I go to the 'Extras' menu the 650 seems to miss some of the files from the list AND repeats entries for other files. In short: GSAK sends the full set of child points but on opening these on the 650 I get this list: GSAK_DBName_Parking Area.gpi GSAK_DBName_Parking Area.gpi GSAK_DBName_Final Location.gpi GSAK_DBName_Reference Point.gpi GSAK_DBName_Reference Point.gpi GSAK_DBName_Reference Point.gpi i.e. the Trailhead, Stages of Multi and Questions to answer are missing. The files are definitely on the Garmin 650 but the Garmin is screwing up when reading them. Any thoughts / similar experiences? Extra info added: This (the above issue) happens when I use the GPS/Send waypoints option in GSAK. I have now discovered the macro GarminExport.gsk which works absolutely fine.
  11. We had hoped that opening a topic on the forum would encourage helpful and informative discussion. So, here is some helpful information. Although geographically in the centre of the British Isles, the Isle of Man is most certainly not part of the United Kingdom. We have our own government, economy, national anthem, flag, stamps, money and more. Indeed, the quickest and most reliable way to upset the indigenous population would be to suggest that it is part of the United Kingdom. We do share the monarchy with the United Kingdom but then so does Australia. As such it is quite correct to use the term “in” the Isle of Man, for caching or indeed any other activity. Why not browse the many posters and booklets (this can be done online) from the island’s years as a top tourist destination which have titles such as “Happy Holidays in the Isle of Man”? I am sure a Geocaching visit to, for example, Hawaii would be referred to as “Geocaching in Hawaii” rather than “on” Hawaii. Yes, Hawaii has more than one island with geocaches but then so does the Isle of Man. We hope this has been helpful and perhaps even encouraged some research before erroneous opinions are posted on the site.
  12. To start the topic off we can point you to the facebook page 'ManxGeocaching'. There are over 500 geocaches on this small island so plenty to choose from.
  13. Hi Are there any left? Only noticed this post today.
