  1. @TonyHobbsFlight :)
  2. @townsendoutdoor thanks for the mentions Chris. Hope you had a good hike.
  3. @TonyHobbsFlight lol!
  4. @JillySherlock that looks acceptable :)
  5. @DaylightGambler if you find anything near my Coast & Moor route let me know. Have fun!
  6. @DaylightGambler good luck carrying the Outwell Oakland XL on your Dartmoor camp ;)
  7. @TonyHobbsFlight unfortunately yes. Hated them tho!
  8. @aroundthehills congratulations Judith. Enjoy the party tonight ;)
  9. @HelenJFisher take it slow. No going out for a hike just yet! Hope it works for you :)
  10. @tookiebunten the 4s is quite thirsty. With the 4 i use 20-30% batt/day for normal use. With the 4s its 40-50%.
  11. @tookiebunten the 4s lasts for 13hrs with sim lock on when using viewranger with gps on. You will get less if you use the screen a lot tho.
  12. @tookiebunten any problems email me! Twitter too short.
  13. @tookiebunten actually that was wrong. Do NOT enter airplane but because the sim is locked it does the same job. i.e. phone is disabled.
  14. @tookiebunten Yes. You need to activate the sim lock. When you power up the phone do not unlock the sim and gps will then work in airplane.
  15. @korpijaakko @ybtracking understand. You could send a manual beacon for that but for general use 10 min auto beacons work well.
  16. @korpijaakko @ybtracking I recommend you spending some time see what sites like @SocialHiking can do and what they need to work well.
  17. @korpijaakko @ybtracking it allows photos to be accurately tagged to the locations that they were taken. Need lots of beacons for that.
  18. @korpijaakko @ybtracking its not about proving! Its about letting others follow you hike realtime with sites like @SocialHiking
  19. @korpijaakko @ybtracking for hiking 10 min tracking (or less) is a must 2 follow a trail. This is 10 min tracking shareyouradventure.com/map/google/Tra…
  20. @korpijaakko @ybtracking @philoutdoors replaceable batteries or a small USB chargeable lithium would work well for me.
