Dak (dak's Emu Mob) had a great one when security approached us in Brisbane @ Combination Delta. Since we where in the vicinity of a rainforest he just claimed we where 'looking for frogs' and the security guard said carry on.

I agree too but I must admit one of my recent attempts in Sydney may make me look like this. Oh Darling I knew I looked obvious with hundreds of people walking past, a guy even came up and offered to help to look for my lost contact lenses. If I had seen the cache I would have known then where it wa...

Read the FAQ and delete your current basemap. Then either put the basemap .IMG file that matches your GPS onto an SD card and run the secret menu basemap load code OR Use MagUp to load the basemap into your Meridian via serial cable (may take a while) ********** If your running a MeriGold or better ...

The basemaps made by the MapSend WWBasemap software are a bit better then the 2 meg basemap that appears in the MeriYellow and MeriGreen but are lot worse then the 8meg basemaps that appear in the MeriGold, MeriMarine, MeriPlat and MeriColor. There are copies of the 2 and 8 meg Aussie basemap floati...

Oh.. I am in Sydney on the 4th and 5th of May, just before you visit, other wise I would have joined you and the caches would have been new to both of us.

I'm sure someone will be able to help you out, there is a large NSW Geocaching community.
