+DeVolson Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 (edited) Does any one know how to use this function? I've added comments at the time of logging a find but have not been able to retrieve what I wrote. Edited February 24, 2013 by DeVolson Quote Link to comment
+kunarion Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 (edited) Does any one know how to use this function? The comments can be sent as "Field Notes" for each cache, to make cache logs easier. Along with a Found log (or DNF), I'll add a short comment about what I left or took, cache condition, or any short phrase to remind me of what I should type in the cache log. I usually don't type the log in the field, just some shorthand. http://support.Groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=128 Edited February 24, 2013 by kunarion Quote Link to comment

I used my Oregon 550 for the first time yesterday and found a handful of caches. SO as I found them we marked them as such and I used the comment field not sure of its purpose. SO do I still have to go to each cache page and log as well as add my notes? I wasn't sure if there was a way to upload or "sync" my PQ with my account and it would mark found and add my comment. Feedback and replies are appreciated. Quote Link to comment

Feedback and replies are appreciated. OK I found the field note FAQ so I see what I can do with my comments but I guess this may answer my other question as well, I still have to log my finds/DNFs, etc? EDIT: meaning I see that it does in fact answer my question. I logged all 6 of my notes from yesterday, using the entries from my field notes. That's convenient, I wasn't sure how the device helped with this step as I just got it and the little bit of caching I did previously was with my droid which obviously can log straight from device, in the field.

+DeVolson Posted February 25, 2013 Author Share Posted February 25, 2013 Thanks for the help. I was at a CITO yesterday and got lots of help. Look in your profile under Field Notes and follow the prompts. Quote Link to comment
