Nothing special. With my current montana 700i I do keep it in a harder case as I'm super paranoid about that large screen.

Garmin gpsmap 66sr or garmin Montana 700
Maingray replied to whoopaa's topic in GPS technology and devices
I like big screens and I cannot lie ...so I always gravitate back to the Montanas. Montana 700i currently. -
Montana 650 Repair Power button
Maingray replied to Ramblin_Man's topic in GPS technology and devices
I did the pencil eraser trick on my 680t, and an Oregon in the past. It's definitely a Garmin "feature". -

Works on my unit! Thanks for the headsup. -

No, it's quite obvious from the map. -
Geocaching live broken on my Oregon 750t

Re-registered device, still no luck. There's little to give you feedback on; it won't pull API info when connected via Bluetooth. The refresh indicator just spins away. You can't seem to try a second time, the indicator doesn't even appear. You have to reset the unit. I doubt it's an API issue per se, and likely something up with the device but it really takes away the point of having this unit so hopefully Garmin can address. -

It's been a month. -
When did Geocaching get so difficult?
Maingray replied to Geostrategist's topic in General geocaching topics
In the 15 years since starting, I find it a lot easier now than before. Many ways to skin that proverbial cat. -

Garmin Introduces the Oregon 700 series
Maingray replied to Barrikady's topic in GPS technology and devices
Yes you can. You can select/deselect the gpx files you want to be active/inactive on the device via the filter screen. ! Sweet! long time user of Garmin gps, never realized my 750 had this feature. Thanks! -
Garmin Introduces the Oregon 700 series
Maingray replied to Barrikady's topic in GPS technology and devices
Enjoying my 750. Fast with big gpx / ggx files. Handy size after my Montana, which I still keep in the car. Nice updating via the API. Enjoy the new workflow. Some things I'd like to see: 1. use of the old gc.com icon set; the new icons that match the app icon set are too indistinct against topo or Birdseye imagery. 2. Ability to add custom "sicky" text to the live logs. Default is a blank log. -
Feedback: Fizzy Challenge Cutoff Date
Maingray replied to Ranger Fox's topic in General geocaching topics
#4. Last find was over a year ago. It's grandfathered in, and already hard enough. -
No, as it says on the guideline page, they are currently grandfathered in.

Examples are here http://support.Groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=206

Subjectivity will always be an issue, but I think it's a bit more clearly explained here: http://support.Groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=787 .. and they are correct..."reasonable number" it will depend on your location
-
Thanks for the update. Glad they are back!
-
No thanks. They'll be pushed to the extreme again of "This tree is AWESOME!".

*blink* I see it quite simply for events. For your event to be listed, the event needs to be at the posted coordinates for at least 30 minutes. Difficulty 1 is appropriate for nearly all events, unless special circumstances exist and this will be reviewed on. That is the event. What you do after the event is the attendees business, and up to the CO to delete inappropriate logs. edit: oops older thread. But I have seen this issue pop up recently locally.

What a handsome bunch.
