Latitude must be S for this country

I'm trying to create a cache with coords of:

N 22° 19.842 E 114° 11.494

which are in Hong Kong.

 

but the page is saying these are invalid coords and displaying this error:

 

"Latitude must be S for this country"

 

Is this a trick or have I missed something

What country did you choose? Did you select Hong Kong, or something else? I have an unpublished cache that I just tried your coordinates with. I put in your coordinates, chose "Hong Kong" as the country, and it accepted it just fine.

I am not able to reproduce this error using the coordinates you provided. Are you certain that you have "Hong Kong" selected in the drop-down?

err no doh... may mistake it was defaulting to my home country.. didn't see they..

 

thanks

problem solved.

foot note perhaps re-wording the message might make it easier to understand it was due to the Country selected not matching coords?

 

eg "Lat. Coordinates do not match the Country selected"
