Garmin Etrex 30 PQ question


Nada Clue

Recommended Posts

I am a newbie who just purchased a Garmin Etrex 30 GPS. I am a premium member. When I do a PQ I specify .gps output but the emailed PQ is in .LOC format that will not transfer to my GPS. If I do a single Geocache file via "Send to my GPS" it comes through fine. I want to download multiple Geocaches. Thanks in advance for your help!!

PQs are not emailed any longer. What you've received is an email with a link to the preview page. Downloads from a preview page are always in .loc format.

What to do?

1. Go to your Pocket Query site

http://www.geocaching.com/pocket/

2. Tap the tab Pocket Queries Ready for Download

3. Click the PQ's name you've like to download

 

The PQ will download now as a .zip file

 

4. Unzip the file and copy both resulting files into your unit's Gpx folder

=> Unit:/Garmin/Gpx/PQ-files
