+TeamBrill Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Help!! I am trying to get to grips with a Garminmap62S. I downloaded a load of caches for a holiday a few weeks ago and when trying to find a multi I had all sorts of symbols and gobbledygook on the scree, I'm sure I have seen somewhere that I can set the GPX format to 1.0.1 but can't find where to do it. Any help and advice appreciated, preferably in non computer lingo Thanks Quote Link to comment
+Great Scott! Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Can you see the setting here? http://www.geocaching.com/account/ManagePreferences.aspx Quote Link to comment
+Lil Devil Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Most GPS units, 62s included, do not recognize the extra information in GPX 1.0.1. For GPS, you should keep that setting at 1.0. OTOH, if you are importing your GPX files into 3rd party software, such as GSAK, you should indeed set that to 1.0.1. Quote Link to comment

I bet if we look at the description, it will have lots of fancy formatting. Quote Link to comment
