IM not sure what format you'd call this. My coordinates are 39.38.33n 119.50.25w .. Maybe I should find my GPS' book and read it? I have a Magellan 2000 XL and only have a few waypoints in it. I took it out today scouting potential cahe spots in the desert behind my house. (Reno,Nv).. I welcome any input good or bad on how I should best set this GPS up. Thanks for the input so far..

Is there a standard setup all Geocachers use? Are we all using the same datum (WGS-84)? Nautical or Statute miles? I ask because I was loking for maps inmy area on the internet and used my home's coordinates and I didn't get any map. Im setup for wgs-84 datum, nautical miles, and I have plotted my location on an aeronautical sectional. Am I doing something wrong ?
