I am wondering if it is possible to do this. tallyho The .loc file doesn't download the hint or description. You have to download the .gpx file (you must be a premium member). I ran into this very same problem and it works beautifully witht he gpx...... JBDiver Quote Link to comment
+palmetto Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 If you're downloading gpx. files into GSAK, the hint info is there. You may need to look at how you're loading the info from GSAK into your GPS. When you go to Send Waypoints to GPS there's pull down box, be sure and put %hint in the waypoint description format box. You'll get as much of the hint as your GPS will support (ie, as many characters. ) Quote Link to comment
+Chaos Team Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 is there a check all on page for Gpx files are they individual only Quote Link to comment
+Prime Suspect Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 (edited) is there a check all on page for Gpx files are they individual only You need to use Pocket Queries in order to get bulk caches in GPX format. The file will be emailed to you. It's not a download. Edited July 8, 2006 by Prime Suspect Quote Link to comment
