GSAK and Garmin 60CSx
« on: January 18, 2012, 07:02:59 PM »
Since I upgraded to GSAK V8, I've noticed that when I export to my Garmin 60CSx, then not all the caches are transferred, but if I do it again, then the missing ones are there. It only affects a small number of caches but can be quite annoying. For instance last weekend I was in London, and my GPSr (preloaded with local caches before I left home) said the nearest cache was 1.2 miles away, but when I checked on NeonGeo on my phone, there was one only 0.1 of a mile away (and it wasn't a new cache either).

Anybody else had this issue?

Go to the Main Menu Screen, then Setup, System, and press the menu button.

Aha!

S/W = 4.00
GPS S/W = 3.00s

and then there is a serial number which is probably different to yours ::)

I had a similar problem exporting caches into GPSU. I usually do this as a loc file as I don't need the extra info but a lot of caches were missing when viewed on the map. When I redid it as a GPX file they were all there. There was nothing different between the caches - we were doing the January Jovialities series.
