Thank you for posting this video. I just bought a Garmin GPS for geocaching and the printed directions are TERRIBLE. You have made this a breeze! I can't wait to go out!
GPS signal is not "to and from", it is simplex only, unless it is being programmed by the US government.
The sats were intended for use with US weapons of mass destruction, especially ICBMs. Billions of US dollars went into developing nav methods for missiles before coming on the GPS method.
Blue Man Group song...its called rods and cones... trust me i know. i developed post traumatic stress syndrome off this song. when i heared it i almost punched my computer!

OK how does it compare to other sports that people use gas or "OIL" to get to. I bet you own a car or truck. Don't be a hypocrite.

This is the venture Garmin model; I believe most of the direction given with this model would be relavant to the latest Garmin models. good luck!

Hey... way to go! It really is a blast, but here in WI, the mosquitos are so bad right now it is hard doing any difficult quests! Stick with it~
