Well, after a little while, I finally figured this thing out. After reading the following how to, the reader may well say, “that’s too complicated, I’ll do it the way I have always been doing it.” Believe me, I can empathize!
So, that being said, here are the directions….so far….
1. Find cache and record data on pda using Cachemate. Do not copy log into memo.
2. When at home, HOT SYNC PDA.
3. Open folder with CM2gpx program in it.
4. Locate the cmate file. This may well be the most difficult part. My file is located along the path C:Program FilesHandspringrpaskeBackupDefaultItems-cMat.PDB –
5. Now, drag the cmat file onto the CM2GPX file. A new file will be created in the same place as the cmat file above. It will probably be called. default-out.
6. Now open GPX and pull down the file menu to Load Cachemate logs and finds.
7. Once again, locate the file that was created in step 5. Chance are it will be created along the same path as step 4. (C:Program FilesHandspringrpaskeBackup)
8. Press the ‘LOG’ button.
9. If all goes as planned, a new column will be added to the GPX file – found by me.
10. The date the geocache was found will show.

**Now I am hoping that someone comes up with a macro that will enable all of this to happen with the press of a button.

A Garmin Legend was the first GPSr that we ever had. Absolutely no problems with it at all.. Not being one to keep stuff too long we’ve moved on…

I think it’s a super unit for the $$$… I give it a thumbs up… FWIW

Congrats are in order for all that have been elected… I was pleased as punch to have even been nominated!!It was nice to see how close the race ended. Goes to show we have a fine bunch of people in our ranks. I’m sure your time will be well spent!!

Thanks to all those that took time out in order to vote and be heard. That shows a dedication to our favorite past-time!!

Now, let’s get out there cachin’!!!

[Flushingrouse]

Cool!!

I think I’m in.

[Flushingrouse]

I guess if there’s any way to explain how the thing works in plainspeak, I’d be interested in reading it.. Does this guy’s coded post help at all with the actual cache code?

Wondering…

BTW for coming in to this as late as we did, I don’t think we faired all that bad… Thanks to all who have the skills to even try!!

One local source that usually has them is Mill’s Fleet and Farm, usually for a reasonable amount…

Online try:
http://www.sportsmansguide.com

or
http://www.cheaperthandirt.com

This should get you started!!!

Cool!!! More to look for!! Have Fun!!

[Flushingrouse]

This is so far beyond me, it’s not even funny… I believe we have some of the best people working on it…

I offically declare that I’ll put up $25.00 towards a plane ticket if we can have a Wisconsin cacher solve and find this cache…!!!

Any more takers? Wouldn’t take much and we’d have a ticket or two in no time!!

Here’s one…

What’s The Difference Between Roast Beef And Pea Soup?

Answer: Anyone Can Roast Beef. 🙂

Please don’t hurt me

[Flushingrouse]

*BUMP*??

Anyone interested? The lack of responses leads me to believe no.. And that’s fine..

Main objective is to have something that people would recognize as non-hostile.. One of my biggest worries is that a Wisconsin container gets viewed as a threat and the bomb-squad gets called… Can you imagine the enormous “black eye” this puts on geocaching??

Wondering..

Nice job Dumpa!! As well as everyone else that participated in such a way to make the event a TOTAL success!!!

“Now that’s what I’m talkin’ about!!”

Thanks!!

The “Geocacher U” procedure mentioned above is perfectly fine for getting PQ’s into your palm… I’ve done it that way too… Nothing wrong with that!

The thing I’ve been having fun with is GSAK’s ability to run macros.. Essentially, all I have to do is get the PQ from my email to my desktop and then click one more button and GSAK automaticly starts, “spins” the querry to my liking, exports the .html, exports .csv (for streets and trips), exports .mps (for fun), prompts me to connect my gps to auto upload wpts., and reminds me that I still need to use Plucker and HotSync my palm… Just one click!!…

If you want to learn more about it, email me or, look at http://www.gsak.net/help/hs21000.htm

Keep on cachin’

Having done Port Puzzle, I find this very funny… I just imagine Anne reading back to me what we’ve decoded… Would have made an interesting sight!!

Thanks for the laugh!!
