Anyone else have a problem with getting a Satellite lock today?

I had sunny and clear skys this morning was getting a reading of +/- 50 feet. My normal reading is +/- 15- 25 feet. At one time it was +93 feet and I was at an open ball field,

OK, Do I need to reset my GPSr or are the satellites in just a funky orbit??
Sunny clear skys and the best I can come with this morning was +/- 23 to 27 feet. I did download the latest Garmin update for my unit.

Lame caches huh? So if they are so lame, why log them? Roundabout caches seem lame, but yet they are still logged. Hmmm….if I was a newbie reading this thread and was just getting ready to put out a cache, would I think twice about putting it out cuz I have to worry if others think it’s going to be lame? Or being a seasoned cacher, do I say screw it and start pulling all my cache cuz maybe someone thinks some of them are lame and stop putting caches out all together. Theese lame caches didn’t seem so lame to the persom putting them out. They went through the effort of putting out the cache to have it later be called lame.

So here is a question. If you are out and with someone else who solved the puzzle, do you sign the log and claim the find even thou you did not find the cache as it was intended?

OK, I now need to attend to some of my caches tthat may or may not lame and decide if they are just a wast of everyones time, mine included.

s|s, I don’t think you have to worry about the NW cachers. I don’t think there is a whole lot Lonely seekers in these parts. But i do appreciate your concern on the matter.

Hmmmmmm…….we don’t seem to have that problem here “Up Nort.”
But again, “Up Nort” doesn’t seem to really be part of the WGA(Ya, I Know, not try to steal the thread thou.) As this sport grows, spots to place any type of cache is going to dwindle. I like puzzle,I make puzzles. I don’t care for micos, and try not to put out micros. Finding 12 micros in the Chequamegon forest was fun and also a pain in the butt when I couldn’t find them. All the area, and I’m looking for something the size of my thumb and there are no other caches with in 10 miles. But I was there looking for them ,cuz there were no other caches within 10 miles.
Had to go back cuz I didn’t find 3 of them. And when I did find them. they were pretty dang tricky but good hides and couldn’t believe I over looked them the first time. If you into numbers and ratings, try Terracaching. I have one in Hayward that hasn’t been found in 3 years.
And it’s with in 100 feet of 1 cache and 300 fwet of 3 others. Terrinf caching you CAN put a cache as close together as you want.

Earthcaches, I don’t go out of my way to find them, but yet there are some who think they are the cat’s meows. For a cache to count, there you need to sign a log. I have yet to find any log to sign at an earth cache. Why did GC.com make Waypoints there own thing? Just think of the numbers one could have if the counted towards finds. And they aint really any diffrent than an earthcache.

Temps, I don’t go find them either cuz there are Regulars that I haven’t found, so why waste my time looking for them. But there are other who do. That’s their choice. And as it was mention buy others in this thread, it all comes down the the Players choice. There was a poll awhile back. You had to choose if you could only hide or only seek a cache, which one would you pick? And the Majority was???????? So the Placers, continue putting out caches that you want to spend the time and money on to put out. The searchers, well, I guess your all stuck to find whats put out to find and if you don’t want to hunt for them, well then don’t. The Puzzlers are not going to lose any sleep cuz you ignoring the caches.

Up until just the last week or so, mu 60csx worked great in heavy cover.
I do not know anything about the other. I think that there has been a weired satallite cove or something cuz I have not had a very good signal and I have heard reports from other cachers in the area have also have had problems. The 60csx is a great unit im my opinion.

I agree with Tie. What’s the difffrfenece if a cacher or a mugglr took the cache container? This happend with the very 1st cache I ever found and one of the oldest ones in the Hayward area. The owner is not from the area. the hiding spot became compromised and the ammo can was damaged with swag everywhere, what was left of it. The owner hadn’t not signed in for months. So, I took it upon myself remove the cache, go buy a replacement cache and refill it with swag. After many email, I got a reply and eventually adpoted the cache.

There is a cache up north where the ammo can came up on the losing end of a fight with a log procceser. Never thought a can could get that flat. Wasn’t real sure where the hidding spot was, but happened to have a container ready to go. So I found a spot that best fit and put both containers there. The cache location was in the middle of nowhere and just off the highway and the owner lived 30+ miles away.

Common sense. Sometimes you just have to use it.
Uses some common sense people.

While I am a physician, I do not routinely do dream interpretation. However, I did look up some symbols commonly found in dreams. Unfortunately geocaching and Burger King were not in the index. However, this is what I found about fighting:

Fighting
To dream that you are in a fight, indicates inner turmoil. Some aspect of yourself is in conflict with another aspect of yourself. Perhaps an unresolved or unacknowledged part is fighting for its right to be heard. It may also parallel a fight or struggle that you are going through in your waking life.

To see others fighting in your dream, suggests that you are unwilling to acknowledge your own problems and turmoil. You are not taking any responsibility or initiative in trying to resolve issues in your waking life.

To dream that you are fighting to the death, indicates that you are unwilling to acknowledge a waking conflict or your own inner turmoil.� You are unwilling and refusing to change your old attitudes and habits.

I don’t use it caching, but I also have my old trusty Buck 110.

[cheezehead]

for the extra $30-40, I think I’d get the Legend. It was my first unit.
YOu can get them at Wally World for under $150. You might also try ebay or on-line somewhere. I would think there would be some X-mas special cominng out soon too.

[cheezehead]

I have all but 1 cache with in 10 mile radius of Hayward. The rest are mine, or I helped with. That 1 caches I get beat to the FTF. It would have been my 1st or 2nd. 2 gals were walking into it as I pulled up.
So I hit the other one just down the road and got the FTF. This was during my luch hour too and I was a fresh newbie. I not sure why I haven’t gone and found that one yet. I think it’s my safety valve. I f I really have the need to hunt for one, it’s there.

[cheezehead]

I would use it. Thou the are may be open to everyone, I wouldn’t want to mess up their hunting. Not all hunters use boats or canoes. I I would use jys for the safety of the geocachers. If it public hunting grounds or open to hunting I use it.

[cheezehead]

This is as close to what I have for kids thou the wife refers to them as the “Kids” Ben (Now a big Lug)and his 1st cache Abby, and Rusty
