Transfer of waypoints to GPS via USB

If you were a premium member you would create a PQ (Pocket Query) and then you would put that in GSAK (Geocaching Swiss Army Knife) software. From GSAK you export the data to a file (I put mine on the desktop) and then after attaching your GPSr to the computer with the USB cable, simply copy the file to the appropriate folder (I put them in Geocaches). Your computer should recognize the GPSr like it's another drive (like a flash drive).

 

It seems like alot at first but it really isn't.

 

GSAK is inexpensive and allows you to read the cache descriptions, previous logs, sort the waypoints, edit the waypoint names (so you can tell what they are when you get them to the GPSr), all sorts of other stuff.

 

A Premium Membership is only $30/year. Well worth it just to get the PQ's. I don't know what I'd do without them.
