Ok when I put in the lat long for my home in easy gps and view it online it puts me way off but when I download waypoints it puts them correctly where they are suppose to be. What gives? If I set up my gps wrong wouldn't the correct lat long downloaded wayoints be off on my moving map? I have a sportrak map.

thanks

Make sure the coordinates you are entering and the mode your GPS is in are the same. There are multiple ways that coordinates can be listed and you have to make sure your GPS is in the right mode for those coordinates.

When I look at a Cache page where you download the waypoints, they are in the same format that my gps lists them in for example a given lat is XX.XXX.XX and this is how I see it in my gps

It is for sure the easy gps software when I put in the Lat Long from the Handy Man Cache it puts the Cache some 15 miles away (in the same area that it puts my Lat Long)
