  1. i had the same problem its not your gps thats behind its ,magellans software thats behind. so heres what you do, select the region hit send to gps it will ask if you want to store it on hard drive, hit yes. once saved right click on start and hit search. search through your computer for whaterver you named the region and you should find the program next copy and paste the program into your gps under detailed maps. if you cant acess the map go to mapsent manager and try to work with it there.

     

    if you need more help drop me a PM

  2. well a map is still good while geocaching i started with an explorist 100 and those just dont do the job. this is because it didnt have a data port which help a lot. without one you have to type each coordinate in by hand. so i will recommend an explorist 210. its black and white but has a map and a nice geocache setup. plus its a magellan you can get them for a pretty good price just go to froogle.com and see what you can find

  3. i cant make a list due to im only a member but ill just tell you now anyone who lives in the TC can tell you Posen has the best hides and he only hides caches in roseville so take a look there are a lot of them crammed in that lil town but its not like hes hiding for density but his caches are quality some are exotic and some are good camos. so heres what you do go to the web site then go search minnesota and search the city of roseville it should be there. id say its about 5 miles from NSP

  4. yes i guess a money order would work its hard to get pics since they are on my cell i know one day i got one on here but i cant figure it out so i can text them to you or email them

     

    its the package

    -manual

    -coord

    -64mb card

    -clip and lanyard

    -trip and waypoint manager

     

    again the price is within resoning if no one here wants it it may be up on ebay in a week or ill keep it a while and sell it later

  5. i bought this Gps on accident i thought i was buying a csx but misread what i read so basicly i got the unit and decided what the heck ill try it out. well i origanaly wanted the csx because it had the digital compass and the barameter so this is not close to what i wanted. i took it on 2 adventures with geocaching and it basicly runs like my 210 only slightly better. so im selling it ive had it 2 weeks brand new with no scratches or damage i cleared out my waypoints so it should be like it was before. i eill be selling it for $350 with some negotiating of coarse but heres my problem. i dont know how to use paypal. i know my dad has it but i will need some instructions before you send any money. i have photos but they are kindof hard to add here as they are in another format but i can easily send them by email or i can text you as they are on my cell.

     

    so before we get to far how do i use paypal?

  6. I am relatively new to collecting geocoins and was wondering if there is a value reference in the works? Have geocoins been included in price guides for other exonumia? And while we are at it what do you think Moun10bike #001 is worth?

     

    Wow, you just opened a couple cans of worms!

     

    I don't know if anyone has built a universal index or reference for value, but like anything collected it depends usually on supply and demand. We've seen coins being sold for under ten dollars by the creator while selling simultaneously for 50+ on the auction site. I'd be interested to learn more myself.

     

    I don't know about Moun10bike's coin though. I would hazard a guess that if it were ever sold it would raise as much a decent small car would cost though. I think I've heard that it's activated by himself though (somebody correct me if I'm off on that) so it would be hard to guess.

     

    Who decides collectibles worth? Now that you've mentioned it I'm really curious. How does the value get rated at a specific point for anything collectible. B)

    Supply and Demand. like anything. and i read somewhere that moun10bike coins are not allowed to be sold and someone tried to sell one it made it to 2000 then i hear M10B deactivated it.

  7. I've been looking for a neodymium magnet that I could use to attach an Altoids tin to the side of a metal building. This might work.

    Check out the warning and shipping message.

    This one would give new meaning to those drive up, cache and dash Altoids caches. You simply drive up, and the cache flies right up and attaches itself to your car. B)

    wow lol i can just see them loading these into the ups truck, hey self loading!!! B)

  8. Hi

     

    I am new to Geocaching. I got my GPS unit for Christmas and I am just getting to grips with it.

     

    I have got to say that if I realised how much fun I would have 'going geocaching' I would have got into it sooner.

     

    I went out New Years Eve and found my first cache and I was really pleased and got quite a buzz.

     

    I have so far looked for 3 caches and found 2. The one I didn't find I have tried to find twice, a fortnight apart and I was quite frustrated, but I am going to try again - I will not be beaten.

     

    I have been out today found a geocache and placed my own. I am quite excited to see how many people find it.

     

    What a great pastime and a good way of keeping fit. It is also nice to get out during the winter months as although it is quite cold; you can wrap up against the weather but you get lovely bright crisp days.

     

    Looking forward to speaking to fellow 'cachers' and picking up some helpful hints.

    when you say you will not fail, thats how many say they get addicted B)
