Hi All,
Yes, I know these are going to be basic questions, but guess that is how I will learn.
First, when one charges the Blue Logger, is one able to leave it in its case while doing so? I tried some, but couldn't readily get it lined up in the charging stand while in its case. So, not wanting to force things, I just took it out of the case and it went in to the stand fine that way--well, best I can tell without sighted assistance here.
Second, about wearing the Blue Logger. I saw those two places/loops on the strap and just used one of them to put the belt clip on the receiver case through. Is that correct?
Mary Ellen, grin, I think it is going to take me more than a couple of days to learn to use this. Oh, I'm perfectly happy learning, but just not that fast.
Yesterday when I first got a signal, I had the PK and Blue Logger out on my balcony, got three satellites and not a very accurate reading of my location, although I thought it was reasonably accurate at the time. But, today when I walked up the street a bit, I got as many as six satellites and my location was pinpointed exactly to the address range in the block where I was. But, before I could explore more, I lost the fix and couldn't readily get it back, probably due to the fact that I had never charged the Blue Logger. But, that is something I am finally taking care of now. Should have done it last night, but I kind of got distracted with other technology related stuff.
I did do some exploring in virtual mode, though, and just had no idea of all the places around me. Well, I knew of some of them, but not nearly all, and this will sure give me ideas of places to try and check out. And, of course, as with the Burger King up the street from me, I know that some may no longer be there, but then a lot still will.
