Odd how this is published in New Zeland, but we are now just hearing about this.
I’ll be looking into this one!
Losing radio for a week does not seem like a big problem. My concern is messing with the ionosphere. Do we really know what we’re doing?
I’m trying all of these at the same time. I have color newsprint working on a plastic coffee container. I have charcoal working on the same. Then I have baking soda working the peanut butter jar. I will post the results in a few days.
Great ideas everyone, thanks!
I know that he does. Watching him talk about caching on the Fox6 news is what got me interested/started.
UNREAL!
Thanks to both of you, this is exactly what I needed. HTML is very new to me, but I’m starting to get the hang of it. Yet another thing I owe to geocaching. I LOVE THIS SPORT!

If it were my TB, Id keep it going just how it is. Thats part of the fun in TB’s and coins, to see the milage take it’s toll on whatever the item is. One of the first geocoins I found was a canadian one that was tarnished gray/black on half, and the other half was mint, like someone had dipped it in Tarnex. It was really cool to find it that way.
My advice since you already have a GPS is to just dive right in like we did.
I started caching in March of this year. I did a BUNCH of research and found the GPS’r that was right for me, then I made a list of all the caches in my area, and downloaded the .loc files form GC.com. Then I packed up my family and went nuts. We have not been able to stop since.
You can start by doing the single star ones, but you will gain much more experiance from the harder ones. Puzzle caches will be the toughest, but they are the most rewarding for us. And, we learned a lot from them, and from the people we had to contact to solve the first few.
Thanks. I guess I should have posted sooner that I scored the cache a few weeks back. Sorry.
I too am facinated by geocoins I have not seen yet. Any time I see a new one pop up in my area, I try to get there quickly to claim it. And, since I have done most every cache in my area, I stop by the cache, sign the log again, and take the coin number with, leaving the actual coin behind. On occasion I do the same for a Unique TB too. The problem for me, is that I almost always get to the cache to late, and find the coin gone… but thats caching.
The golden rule here, in my opinion, is to have fun. And in that fun, make sure you are leaving room for other cachers to have the same amount of fun. Unless you can move a coin or bug along it’s intended journey, leave it for others to enjoy. And remeber, always smile while caching! 😀
We’re in for a couple cases of water.
I’m not 100% sure, more like 99% sure that the wisconsin geocoins have all sold out. f you watch e-bay, you may see one pop up now and then.
I just found out about the TB last week. I sent in the form right away. I hope there is still one for me!!!
If you are still looking for a card reader, you can pick one up on e-bay for $0.01 + $2.99 shipping. The one I got reads something loke 25 different card types. It has no memeory of it’s own, but it reads just about every card on the market.
