What is a reasonable Time frame to log your cache finds?
What is a reasonable Time frame for FTF cache finds?
Should one write poor remarks re other finders?
-
After you plug usb cord into gps and then computer then turn on gps.
Gps should read file transfur mode.But must turn on unit after it is pluged in.

Went for a Sunday arvo drive the other day and just couldn't think of anywhere to go , so drove round and can home.
Geowife and I said that without caching we would have nowhere to go.
It takes us to places within 50km of home that we never knew where there.
TFTC.

Hate note knowing if it is today tomorrow or yesterday.
As for FTF just post a note to let others now of your find.

Can I just say that these are some of the most stunning photos I have seem in a long time.
This is what it is all about. TFTC and Photos.

This topic was started on the Australian GCA site .
Alot of Australian Caches use this forums site. As for getting any helpful information on this subject I thought I would bring it to the site linked to GC.com and see if I am able to get a better responce from the Global Geocaching community.
Has any one ever had there caching account stolen?
Looks like the JABs have and about a dozen caches in the south of the ACT have been looged as been found by us.
As this is not the case I have edited those logs to note that we never visited the area.
Please let us know if anyone else has had this problem and if so what was done to overcome it.
Thanks Jon aka JABs.

Hi there just thought you would like to know there was a previous tread on this thats ok
here is a link to a cache in NSW Australia
love this type of cache and another idear is to place the solar panel so that when a cars/tourch light
shines on it it then starts to work. Just a thought. Good luck.

Hi so you want to drill straght though the earth goto Google Maps and a feature of
there's lets you place on the map anywhere in the world an it shows you where you come out.

Support group I thought this was the support group.
You get side tracked reading the link by Jeep Dog.
You start looking for a cache just because this is a great spot
and there may be one hidden here.
-
As noted before IE XP latest of both and norton with auto firewall was having the same problem as
everybody. Have not changed anything and now all seens to be working fine.
Will keep watching this tread to see what happens.

As a premiun member you can check or uncheck the types of cache you wish to search for.
Uncheck all but say earthcaches and this limits what is showen therefore loads quicker.
The other way is if you know a cache near by load that page then instead of going to google.maps
FIND..........all nearby caches, that I haven't found.(click that I haven't found) and this list shows
from KM out all caches and gives you the mapping icon as well.
-
In the area west of the bluies Scenic Routers would have alot of hides
But best hides top of my list would be Team AAA.
-
There has been an improvment if you move maps slowly.
Can't goto a location.
-
IS ANYBODY LOOKING INTO THIS OR NOT -HAVE NOW TRIED SEVERAL DIFFERANT SYSTEMS + THREE DIFFERANT SERVICE PROVIDERS AND FOUR SEARCH ENGINES.
-
Still can't get mapping to work on IE or Firefox -Firefox does let us pan map around and shows symbol,
except there is no base / background so makes it very hard to work out very one is. Hope I'm not the only
one out here with this problem????? HELP PLEASE.
-
Well thought that running Mozilla would fix mapping problem but not for me all it does is shows caches
there is no feature to zoom in or out and IT DOESN'T SHOW ANY MAP at all just stars and smilies.

Hi as a premiun member you can set up notifications which emails as soon as a new cache is listed within the guidlines you request EG. 80km from home co-ords, new listing only, trad, size or how ever you wish.
This email tells direction and distance and provides link to cache page for quick access to info.
If you are after FTF this is a great way to get ahead as the email usally comes a few minutes before it is showen on wed site.
"Instanotify" Notification Service
