+carolnbarney Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 I've had GPX Sonar suggested to me as a program to use on my PDA for caching. In trying to find it to download, the link I found seems to be either broken or no longer active. Don't know which. It's not listed on geocaching.com under resources. I don't know if all that means it's no longer available or not. Does anyone have an answer for this question?? Thanks for your time........ Quote Link to comment

+carolnbarney Posted March 16, 2010 Author Share Posted March 16, 2010 Found it HERE Great little program if you have packet PC 2003 Thank you very much!! I have it now!! The PDA/X50V I have coming is "supposed" to have Pocket PC 2003. At least, the description on Ebay said so. We'll see I guess. Thanks again!! Quote Link to comment

+ClubMCR Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Yes, I used gpxsonar on an axim x50v until I got my Oregon. GPXSonar was an excellent application. Get the latest v1.5 It takes the zipped pocket query from geocaching. That zipped file contains 2 files: gpx and wpts.gpx Midway through last year, something about these files from geocaching.com changed, and gpxsonar wouldn't read it properly. The solution was to remove the wpts.gpx file from the zipped pocket query. I found an application that ran on the axim that would open the zip file, and I could remove the wpts.gpx file and resave it. I don't remember what it was called. But this allowed me to not have to download the PQ to a computer to edit the zip file before transferring to the Axim. Good luck. Quote Link to comment
