Thanks for the hint. That works fine.

I'd like to report an error that occurs when printing out a cache page. The GC number is at the top right corner of the printed page, both for Letter and A4, but it's cut, so you can't see the GC number on the printed page.

When I receive a notification email about geocachers contacting me, and I reply to this email, then the color is (almost) white on white, even though the received email is black on white. The received email is base64 encoded html, which has CSS for the background of the body set to white, without setting a font color. Maybe that's where the problem arises? In the attached image I have written two lines with "This is a test" where I have marked the second line so you can see that I wrote something. The first line disappears because it's white on white.

The draft markers seem to have cleared themselves, looking at the same spot on the geocaching map here a few months later. /Mogens

Because I rarely use the function and only needed to log the caches found that day. But by uploading the geocache_visits.txt file geocaching.com found a lot more than the ones I was interested in, so I deleted the rest, but still got the icons on the deleted ones. /Mogens

Today I uploaded geocache_visits.txt from my GPS and used the found/DNF logs from my GPS as Drafts. I then logged the caches using the Drafts. I deleted the rest of the Drafts after logging todays geocaches. But a lot of caches are now shown with the blue exclamation mark icon on the maps page on the web. How can I get rid of those? I really don't want to log a note on 100+ geocaches... /Mogens

Project GC can calculate a lot of statistics for you. https://project-gc.com/ You'll have to allow Project GC to get access to your data on geocaching.com /Mogens

I saw that option, but I didn't notice any difference in the version identifier at the top of each GPX file. I'll change to v1.0.1. /Mogens

The selected filter filtered out caches with low difficulty and low terrain ratings. I don't remember setting a filter, so I'm not sure why it ended up like that. Thanks! /Mogens

Well - Master Reset didn't help... now what? /Mogens

I can't make it work. I tried adding a single GPX file with a distance of 17 km from my current position, after booting up wit hempty GPX folder, but that didn't show up either. I guess Master Reset is next... /Mogens

Should I also delete the Archive, Current and Nav folders in the GPX folder? Or empty them? /Mogens

I have 151 GPX files in the \Garmin\GPX\ folder on my Garmin Oregon 600, but the geocache list is empty. How do I find which is the offending file? /Mogens

Has this battery powered cache near Aalborg in Denmark been shown here yet? I found it a few weeks ago. It's called GC745T0 "Gubbifiskens arcadeeventyr 6 x AA" in Danish, which translates to "Guppy fish's arcade adventure 6 x AA". It is a small game that requires you to bring your own batteries, which powers a small computer, a screen and a joystick. The game is a 3 screen game of avoiding moving perils, and gives out a code when finished. The code unlocks a container holding the log book. /Mogens

Actually GMT-5, GMT-6 and GMT-7 all give the same Daily Finds statistic without errors. Next I'll try to correct (on web) any geocache logs that cause a wrong date after conversion, and see if that helps. /Mogens

Success!! Converting all timestamps from logs to "GMT-5", which just moves all timestamps 5 hours, results in 0 errors compared to gc.com. I also contacted gc.com, who gave an answer today: /Mogens

I couldn't find a way to convert latitude+longitude to a timezone in PHP, so I had to find timezones for the 23 country/state combinations I have found caches in. But I get even more errors when I use localtime for the individual countries/states. /Mogens

All finds on that date are in Denmark, so same timezone, but thanks. I'll try a crude method of calculating correct time from longitude and see what I get. /Mogens

Hi! I'm trying to replicate the "Finds for Each Day of the Year" statistic by parsing my MyFinds pocket query. I'm using PHP, as I'd like to display my result on a webpage, and have possibility to upload a new MyFinds pocket query and have the calculations performed once again. It appears that differences in number of caches found occur on log timestamps that are close to midnight, so I guess my problem is related to parsing timestamps. I'm in Denmark, so my timezone is CET. So I convert the log timestamp to my timezone using: function dateToTimezone($dateTimeUTC, $timeZone = 'Europe/Copenhagen', $dateFormat = 'Y-m-d H:i:s') { $date = new DateTime($dateTimeUTC, new DateTimeZone('UTC')); $date->setTimeZone(new DateTimeZone($timeZone)); return $date->format($dateFormat); } dateToTimezone("2017-08-23T23:51:23Z") = "2017-08-24 01:51:23" I then take only the month and day portion and create my Daily Finds statistic. But there are huge differencies compared to the gc.com statistic. geocaching.com: Mine: On e.g. June 5. I find 10 finds, while gc.com has 9. My 10 are (UTC - CET timestamps): 2006-06-05T07:00:00Z - 2006-06-05 09:00:00 2009-06-05T19:00:00Z - 2009-06-05 21:00:00 2009-06-05T19:00:00Z - 2009-06-05 21:00:00 2009-06-05T19:00:00Z - 2009-06-05 21:00:00 2009-06-05T19:00:00Z - 2009-06-05 21:00:00 2009-06-05T19:00:00Z - 2009-06-05 21:00:00 2009-06-05T19:00:00Z - 2009-06-05 21:00:00 2009-06-05T19:00:00Z - 2009-06-05 21:00:00 2013-06-05T15:23:26Z - 2013-06-05 17:23:26 2017-06-05T03:59:40Z - 2017-06-05 05:59:40 How can gc.com interpret these dates (UTC or CET) to fall on another date? /Mogens

I hook my Oregon 600 to my computer using a USB cable, and then answer Yes to a question on the Oregon on whether to go to "Mass Storage". I then find a geocache I want to visit (being a Premium Member) and press on the GPX File button on the cache page. The GPX file I then copy onto the Oregon in the \Garmin\GPX folder. I then unplug the Oregon from the computer and start the Oregon. I then select the Profile Change icon and select the Geocaching profile. I then get a geocaching icon that will display a list of nearby caches. I select one and press on the Go button to start navigating to the cache. After I have found and logged the cache I then press the blank button on the side of the Oregon to change to the cache page, where there is a Log button. Press it and then select Found. /Mogens

Is it possible to transfer a GPX file from an iPhone onto an Oregon 600 using wireless transfer? When I go out geocaching I have usually prepared visiting a few geocaches by downloading a GPX file for the caches I want to visit unto my Oregon 600. I do that from my desktop computer using a USB cable. But some times I end up visiting more geocaches than I had prepared for and would like to know whether it's possible to transfer GPX files from iPhone to an Oregon 600. /Mogens

If you keep projecting as you go from waypoint to waypoint, then errors will add up, possibly ending up way off from the intended ending waypoint. I tried a cache near me where I had to project 3-5 times (it's years back...) and I ended up quite far from the intended ending waypoint. /Mogens

The "GPX file" button is only available to premium members. If your browser supports the "Send to My GPS" function and your GPS supports GPX, then you'll get a GPX file sent to your GPS by using this function, but the GPX file is without cache description, hint and recent logs if you are a non-premium member. /Mogens

Prior to the W10 upgrade I was able to click "write" as per the procedure i documented in my posting and the geocache (GPX file) would be sent to the GPS. That is how i used the website to transfer the selected geocaches to my GPS. And i was not a premium member. So it worked then, but not now. Trying to figure out why it wont work now If your not a premium member you should have never received .gpx files, but instead you should have gotten .loc files. The windows upgrade does not change that. Perhaps i haven't been clear. Prior to W10 i was able to send geocaches to my GPS by using the procedure i mentioned in the first post. Did you read what i wrote in the post and is that method clear to you?. Are you saying i cant do that transfer unless i am a premium member? And yet i have been able to so in the past on a W8.1 and W7 PC, as most recently as two weeks ago Please explain .gpx files are a premium member feature. Regular members get .loc files. Perhaps something has changed on the website in the last two weeks. When a non-premium member views a geocache page on geocaching.com the GPX File button is disabled, but if you have a browser capable of using the old Send to My GPS function and a GPS capable of loading GPX files, a GPX file (without description, hint, images etc. but including cache size, terrain and difficulty) is written to the GPS. So (crippled) GPX files are available to non-premium members. And they do contain a little more information than LOC files. /Mogens

I bought a Oregon 600 recently, and is using the Send GPX To Device function from geocaching.com for the few caches I visit. But it's tedious when I have to transfer each cache individually, and I don't get a cache description or hint being non-premium member. So I'm thinking of upgrading the membership and using GSAK. The bottom line is that you may be able to live with the restrictions of non-premium membership, but it depends on your usage, as sussamb writes. /Mogens
