cooney Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 Ok, another dumb newbie question that can probably be answered in the FAQ, but here goes: When trying to submit a new cache, I enter the Lat. and Long. in DMS. When I submit it, the coordinates come up wrong. When I go to edit the fields are in DM ( I think ). What on earth is going on? I can edit everything but the Lat. and Long. Even tried doing it over with a new name, same result. "When life looks like easy street, there is danger at your door." Jerry Garcia Quote Link to comment

No seconds. As long as the minutes are not higher than 59.999 you should be able to submit it. ~erik~ Quote Link to comment
