+hike4familyfun Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 (edited) Just wondering if anyone else has noticed this anomaly. When I load caches from GSAK to my Oregon 300, I always seem to have some caches listed in my "Found" listing, that I haven't yet been to. It always marks 3 or 4. I can easily "Go" to them, and then mark them as "Unattempted", but its just down right annoying! GSAK definitely see's them as "Not Found"... Haven't tried loading a pocket query straight into the Oregon to check if it does the same thing, as I like to load more than the 200 max.

Are these caches marked as found in your geocache_visits.txt file? Try deleting it. Should be at GARMIN\geocache_vists.txt If you haven't discovered field notes, by the way, they are incredibly convenient. You just upload that file to get a list of your finds in order for easy logging. http://www.geocaching.com/my/uploadfieldnotes.aspx -Ben Quote Link to comment
+hike4familyfun Posted October 5, 2008 Author Share Posted October 5, 2008 Are these caches marked as found in your geocache_visits.txt file? Try deleting it. If I delete that file (It did have the caches in the file), will the Oregon naturally re-create the file, or should I just delete the text within the file and resave it? also u can load 500 caches per gpx on the oregon I've loaded a 1000 cache gpx file onto my Oregon, with no problems. Thanx for the feedback, I appreciate any and all comments!!! Quote Link to comment
+hike4familyfun Posted October 5, 2008 Author Share Posted October 5, 2008 We recommend that you delete the "geocache_visits.txt" file on the Colorado once your Field Notes are uploaded. Think I found the answer to my previous question If you haven't discovered field notes, by the way, they are incredibly convenient. No, I didn't realize I could do this feature, as it stated it was for the Colorado.... I will check it out Quote Link to comment
+Cableshots Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 havent seen that happen i dont use gsak also u can load 500 caches per gpx on the oregon You can use watcher to merge several PQ's and then save it to a gpx file, and upload it to the Oregon. I have just created a 750 cache file. I think you could even go as high as 2000 this way. Quote Link to comment
