Where is it in the system please. It was very helpful.
  3. How do you add geochecker to puzzle pages I filled in the info copied and pasted the link and nothing is there a knack to how to do it.
  4. I walked a potential new series a week or so back took waypoints and then thought hmm I like this pace better so have been busy setting new caches. Thing is the waypoints keep vanishing. I did not delete them they just went then the ones from the other day ate there all done cache pages etc, Been back set a few more took waypoints came home they vanished Totaly confused don't take much I know but I now have to go back put and get the waypoints. And in this heat it's no fun almost at the point of giving it up and waiting for winter lol So why is it doing that and why somedays not others its an etrex 10

HAving scrambled through barbed wire yestersay after the GPS had a dizzy spell and sent me the wrong way
  10. Hi Thanks have followed your link again and i get this come up thre was an error on this page where (object object) error description invalid argument click ok to continue so click ok then it gets stuck with the little arrow rolling around and around. I cant click + or - it won't let me I am on IE so will try it on sons laptop on chrome and see what happens then. When they forst updated it it did work albeit slowly. but now not for me.
  11. Relatively new to this and I was wondering what do you have in your caching kit I have tweezers and gloves now for stingers but what other helpful gadgets would you recommend to help with cache retrieval .Aside from arms like inspector gadget that can reach into odd places and holes I would rather not blindly put my whole arm in ! !

  13. Pc ok otherwise just issues with MM
  14. Is it just and my pc but I am struggling with the new improved magic map very slow to load find and crashes and freezes pc

  16. Was this each one or for a collections of them
  17. cool site is down at the minute but will be back for agood look around thanks
  18. So you can get coins for milestones achieved 100 250 etc and the websites say you can get your local cobbler to engrave them great. But today I asked how much it would cost to engrave RIP George and the date for my daughters guinea pig onto a brass plaque and they wanted to charge me in excess of 12 quid. So i asked what about putting a date on an award coin and they said £8 minimum Now maybe I am being ripped off here but if you get your coins engraved where do people go and what does it cost you surely not nearly a tenner . If I ever get to a milestone I dont think I will be engraving them at this rate.
  19. sorry didn't mean to shout caps lock was on I am trying to work out PQ's and was looking at the GPS trying to work out what was what. It's all a bit to techy for me. It is asking me for a program and I thought maybe it didn't load or something when you plug the GPS in. will look at the garmin link thanks
  20. Ahhhhhhh thats why i dint get them then just worked out i had set up a notification for an unknown cache the ones that were listed recently were traditional hence why i didnt get the notifications so i need to set up each type seperately then, hadnt twigged that when i set up the notifications thanks for making it clearer Thankyou for your help
  21. I did set this up and a whole bunch of 39 plus another series and some others have been published only knew that they were new because i saw when i was seeking a cache and a little blue NEW was in the listings.
  22. I see from logs people get notified when new caches are published. There was a great series yesterday not far from me but I happened across rather than got notified. How do you get notifications
  23. PLEASE. IF I OPEN IT I CAN ACCESS THE FILE AND SEE ALL THE CACHES ETC LISTED BUT WHEN IT TRY TO OPEN THEM MY PC SAYS IT CAN'T THE PROGRAM DOES NOT EXIST ASKS ME TO LOOK' FOR ONE USING THE WEB AND CANT I SHOULD BE ABLE TO LOOK AT THE FILES LIKE IT WAS A CAMERA OR SIMILAR
