Garmin Nuvi 1300 and Favorites
GrayHawk613 replied to CrazyCate's topic in GPS technology and devices
I downloaded caches to my Nuvi 1300 by clicking one at a time on the individual cache pages.It worked for a short time and then stopped working. The caches are in the GPSR but for whatever reason they're not showing.Caches only show when I enter coordinates by hand -

Keep in mind that there are lots of free maps out there. -

can a hunting gps be used for geocaching
GrayHawk613 replied to crazypig88's topic in General geocaching topics
We started with that unit. It worked well enough for our first 100+. A few drawbacks worth noting... 4] data field(s) are short -- that is, you are limited to five (5) or seven (7) characters for the cache name (use the cache ID#, dropping the GC as they all have that), the lat/long fields will record only to the second decimal (not to the third decimal as other units do). Simply put, it wasn't made with geocaching in mind. It was designed before geocaching was conceived. Well that's how all devices were when it was desinged.Even in the Idiots Guide to Geocaching 3rd edition they say that you should put the GC code because most units can't handle a long name. What a long way we've come since 2011! -

We found our first few caches with the GPS 12 I got in 2000. It will work, but it will be bare bones: unless he has some basic maps on there, it's going to be coordinates and either an arrow or a dot on a screen. Mine wasn't terribly accurate, either. It was, after all, designed in the days before selective availability was turned off, so I suspect it was not designed for pinpoint, or even broad brush, accuracy. Let me put it this way, we noticed almost an exponential improvement in accuracy when we got a GPSMAP 60CSx and quit using our GPS 12. (Still, it's better than no GPSr at all. And probably a nuvi. -
What web browser do you use?

Quick. Fill up any available space.....

Forgive? Or Absolve? "I'd absolve a traditional CM ..." Maybe only the Catholic CMs get absolved, while Protestant CM are forgiven. :laughing: -

Better be on the safe side. Plus it only takes two seconds. -

It's probably safer to delete the file. -

That's the only way to do it. -
That doesn't make any sense! Check to make sure you're using the latest plug-in.

I've never found a Night Cache.

It's an okay unit.It's probably better than what I've got.A nuvi!

Some muggles do have a very high viscosity, especially in regard to their brain matter, so that's not far off! :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

You say this because ... ?? I just said it. Quote:The Oregon GPSrs rack up numbers on the odometer when still.The 64 series does the same thing but much less.
