I find GSAK works best for compiling multiple PQ's together, filtering caches out I don't want, then loading them onto my gpsr. Plus using GSAK, I can load more than the last five logs on any cache (there are a few caches over here in North Bama I have the entire cache history loaded on my device for). It's a powerful tool, but once you get a workflow down, it's not that hard.<br><br>On Oct 19, 2012, at 8:23 PM, Gale <<a href="mailto:sonoralovesmommy@yahoo.com">sonoralovesmommy@yahoo.com</a>> wrote:<br><br></div><blockquote type="cite"><div><table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0"><tbody><tr><td valign="top" style="font: inherit;"><br><font face="arial" size="2">Hi all.

The explorist 310 has, according to the person at magellan, a "defect" that he wants me to copy and send to their software people to figure out. The device is getting returned for a full refund. </font></div><div><font face="arial" size="2"><br></font></div><div><font face="arial" size="2">We got the garmin etrex 20 and decided to download caches. It only downloaded one cache that I can find on the etrex geocaching screen, yet if I try to download other caches again, it tells me they are already downloaded. The unhelpful help desk at garmin says it is the fault of the <a href="http://geocaching.com">geocaching.com</a> site. Uh huh. That somehow there is something on some cache pages that prevent it from loading. Uh huh.
