+wotanykey Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 hi all well having this morning seen the geocaching item on country file. i had never heard of the word before that! i have now found you all on line, become a premium member, and ordered a garmin off ebay, and i cant wait till it comes to get started .........i have always had an interest in direction finding (using radio equip to find a transmitter hidden somewhere in the country side) but never took part as it was always a bit "radio hamy" , but i can see that this has the great fact that all u need to join in is a gps in yr pocked, and also to be able to use your skills to hide caches for others to find Quote

+Bear and Ragged Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 There's some excellent GSAK macros for that one. Not true paperless caching, but getting there! Quote
