Is that the same friendly locksmith who attempts people's caches in the middle of the night, realises the owner has stuffed up the coordinates when stamping and then corrects their errors for free? Meanwhile the owner of the cache drives home and leaves the locksmith bogged and with no one to help h...

Put things in that are useful or that kids might actually like to play with. New toys are good, McDonalds figurines are not. Blockbuster DVDs are good, movies from the 50s are not (as a rule). A set of drink coasters is good, one drink coaster is not (it won't match the others in the set.)<br> <br> ...

I used the advice on the following link to tweak my iPaq for Wherigo caches. Occasionally I have to reset my iPaq which puts the setting back to its default mode, which means when I do a Wherigo I have to go through the process again.

I have the same problem with the compass on my 60CSx and haven't found a solution yet. On the topic of batteries, whilst in Tassie recently I tried a cheap brand that I picked up in bulk and found my GPSr wouldn't even turn on! However, once I did turn it on (by connecting it to the car charger) it ...

I wish I'd seen this earlier, crap logs are a pet peeve of mine. The only thing I wanted to add is that I'd rather a unique 40 word log over a 70 word log that had two sentences of generic filler.
