+AussieRobbos Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 (edited) Hi, fairly new and getting rather frustrated! I have a Garmin E-trex 10 which works great. Have just signed up as a premium member so I could get the descriptions etc in the GPS and have spent ages one by one "sending to GPS" but there has to be a way to do them in batches rather than one by one? I tried to check them all but that just downloads a LOC file to my PC. How do you transfer them to your GPS more than one at a time? thanks AussieRobbos Edited September 12, 2013 by AussieRobbos Quote Link to comment
+Venzent Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 If you are a premium member, you can do this with "Pocket Queries". You can create up to 1000 caches per PQ, and download them to your Garmin (place them in the folder "GPX"). On the homepage, click Profile-Pocket Queries Quote Link to comment

+AussieRobbos Posted September 12, 2013 Author Share Posted September 12, 2013 Thank you! Will start playing with pocket queries. I had a look at GSAK - my Father in Law uses it but within 5 minutes my head was done in! Thanks for the reply, it's much appreciated! Quote Link to comment
+whh0 Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 And don't try and download 1000 caches to the Etrex10 - it doesn't have a big enough memory. About 300 is the most it can handle comfortably. Quote Link to comment

About 300 is the most it can handle comfortably. I can fit about 500 in my etrex 10, but I only downlaod the last 4 logs and NO children (parking waypoints etc Apparently there is another way to get more into any GPS and that is to download them as waypoints only, but that kinda defeats the purpose of the premium membership in the first place...

+MountainWoods Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 You can limit the number of logs you download? How's that? Quote Link to comment
+ScouterBill174 Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 When you configure your GPSr to the etrex 10, it gives you an option in the dialog box as to how many logs to add. I was going to add a screen shot, but I cannot seem to do it for some reason Quote Link to comment
