!! How to quickly get model WP's in your GPS.
If you plan to do a Cache that has a lot of WP's but the coordinates are not known in advance, you normally have to enter them while walking the cache.
\\I always enter them with the name of the cache like ''GC15YBN 06'', but this takes quite some time to enter on your GPS 60.
\\To solve this mostly I have made a model.loc file with 15 dummy names and locations. Just edit this file :
* change all occurrences of ''-UNKNCACHE-'' with the cache name
* change all occurrences of ''--UNKNOWN CACHE--'' with the cache description
* delete or add entries if needed
* save the file as <''cachename''>.loc
* gpsbabel -i geo -o garmin ''<<cachename>>''.loc usb:
This way you already have the WP's in your gps, and only have to enter the coordinates once you have them.
The model file can be [downloaded here|model.loc].
