Actually you will have to buy $200 worth of software and it still wont be able to do what you say your magellan software can do, BECAUSE you cant run both of the GARMIN programs at the same time and they dont overlayer each other. So you will have to run one or the other, you cant run both at the same time. Cary in SD

There will be an organizational meeting for a Geocaching Club in Sioux Falls, SD at the Ronning Library, which is lockated on 49th Street and Southeastern drive. The meeting will start at 7:30 PM, on Thursday March 16th, 2006. Please tell your friends and associates who may be interested. Children welcome, but please no children under age 5. Bring your thoughts, ideas, hints about what you would like to see in a club. Please contact me at cary1952@sio.midco.net if you have any questions. If you are interested in attending, I would also appreciate if you drop me an email.

Garmin came out with the 60CSx and 60Cx to replace the old 60C and 60Cs. 2 major differences are that it has a better receiver and has removable storage. Some folks like the older models better. They are still available for purchase from some dealers. Cary

For those of you thinking on getting the Garmin C or CS models (legend, vista, 60) be aware that they are DISCONTINUED. yes they are still available at a discount, but the x models are being discounted too. Most of you know this, but i am sure you all dont. Cary in SD

No question for now, The best priceon a 60CSx or 60CX is at gpsdiscount.com IF you buy the package with either Garmin TOPO or Garmin City Select software. They cant discount the price of the unit if you buy it alone, but if you buy the software package, the software is almost free. Must have to do with some internet fair sales policies from Garmin. I ordered mine from them and got it within 3 days . Shipping no charge by fed ex. I would order again from them. Cary in S.D

To see your version do from the main menu: 1. Setup then enter 2. sysstem thenenter 3. press MENU Cary in SD

well i got a garmin 60CSx that I love , but it is 399.00 and receives highest marks from a lot of people. it has the newest type of high test receiver/antenna. if you can afford it, spend the extra 99.00 for one. Cary in SD

i just got my 60CSx this week. If you are getting any mapping programs, be sure to download the latest drivers and updates on garmin.com or they wont work. Cary in S.D

yes my microSD was in unit. what i needed to do was install some new drivers. it works fine now, and I even downloaded the TOPO map to the harddrive using the REGEDIT advice in another link. Cary

Same thing with a different name or 2 different kinds of memory chips? Cary

I think i got it! i need to reinstall some new drivers i guess. Cary in SD

You should be able to. Have you updated the MapSource program to the latest version available for download from the Garmin website? I think I have the latest version of TOPO, but I am not sure. I just got the software and the GPSr today. Again, PLEASE HELP ME! Cary

I get a message saying that I can not transfer maps from Garmin TOPO software to my 60CSx. Is this true, or am I doing something wrong? I am very confused and upset about this. I was assured I could transfer maps. Cary in SD

I would appreciate correspondence from an President or Officer of a Geocache club that may be able to steer me in the right direction on organizing a club. If you would be so kind as to email me with your name, email adress, and/or phone number (optional, but would appreciate it.) , I will get a hold of you.

hi, Since we are only 10 miles from Minnesota and Iowa,any of you SW Minnesotans or NW Iowans that would be interested in helping organize our new club, please email me your name, email address, and phone number and I will contact you regarding a few of us starting a geocaching club in Sioux Falls. cary1952@sio.midco.net

I have sent out email to many of you who have posted caches within 35 miles of Sioux Falls, SD, but I am sure I have missed some of you, and I have not sent out emails to those who have found the caches. I am in the process of starting a club in the area. If you have any interest , please email your name, address, and phone number and I will get in touch with you.

Is it possible to download cache cooridinates directly on to your GPS? I have a Garmin 60 CSx. Cary

I live in Sioux Falls, SD and have just ordered a Garmin 60 CSx. I just discovered this forum, and geocaching sounds like a wonderful hobby to go with my bird watching, metal detecting, and gold panning, which I participate in. I am looking forward to receiving my GPS and finding some of the local caches. The forum here looks awesome. I can hardly wait to get started! cary1952 Sioux Falls, SD

I've seen a lot of caches in Sioux Falls and surrounding areas of the East River and was just curious as to how many people are active in the forums, I check back on the forums as much as I can, mainly to lurk around for information and geocoins that I like to collect, trade or grab. Met up with some nice folks in my little area of Lake Andes that enjoy doing this so I said I would post and see who else was out there. Thanks for the reply and I will leave this post running for awhile longer to see who else might respond. Happy Hunting Hi, I am new to the hobby and live in sioux falls. Please contact me at cary1952@sio.midco.net (if you want to leave your phone number I will give you a call.) Cary 1952

I am a new to this forum and new to the hobby itself. I have ordered a Garmin 60CSx and will receive it next week. I would like to meet other people and find out if there is a club around, or possibly start one. I live in sioux falls. Please email me at cary1952@sio.midco.net if you are interested in getting together. thanks. Cary1952 Sioux Falls, SD
