RE: [Az-Geocaching] coordinate confusion

The pocket query info is downloaded into gsak. I check the database in
gsak--it has the correct coordinate. It is only wrong in the Garmin--so you
must be right. It must be isolated to GPSr. Not good... We had a legend
for the first 400 caches we did. Never had it happen then.

I think the problem is isolated to the Garmin 60 series and has
nothing to do with the file! I've never had or seen the problem with
an etrex or an etrex lengend series or any Magellan!
