I am using TB (latest 1.1.1) with Czech turistic maps and I like it much. Many times it helped me. Now I started to do Geocaching little bit and have a problem with Trekbuddy. Every single cache I tried to find was arround 130m far in the moment TB showed me I am in target destination. I expect that assisted GPS from cell phone is not ideal for searching GC but the difference 130m seems to me strange. Can anybody help me? Thank you

Problem is solved in another thread.

Issue was caused by GMT+1 addition on my local czech map. If you change TB setting to geocaching mode this mentioned inaccuracy is solved and TB can find caches very well.

go to: SETTINGS\BASIC\COORDINATES

Do change from MAP Lat/Lon to Geocaching Lat/Lon
