Hookah_Team Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 I recently got into geocaching with my friends and I have been using my phone (motorola i880) for gps. My phone goes by the minutes, seconds instead of the decimal system shown on all the geocache pages. I know I can click the conversion button to switch over to the minutes, seconds system, but I was wondering if there was a way I could setup my account to automatically display all the cache with the minutes/seconds.

+scuba dude Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 I don't think there is any way to cause the coords to come up automatically in a different format. To do that, you would need to go with a secondary program, and load pocket queries into it. On th eother hand, I like your avatar and name. I got started on smoking shisha over here in Iraq. Sadly I had to pack mine away for shipping and I can't smoke until I get back home. Quote Link to comment

There might be a way to change your phone. It also needs to be WGS-84 datum. Jim Quote Link to comment
