Main thing put GPS in WGS84 before you enter your coordinates.

Hi Weewillie, We live at Mt Cotton if you would like a hand or have some questions. We did it the hard way ( but learnt by our mistakes and laughed at them ) but were guided by lots of great people. If you would like to do a few caches with us I would be more than happy to meet at a start point. If you have any questions you can ring on 0419 763 263 (David ). Either way go and enjoy it. Cheers The Nanks
