rustywa 1 Report post Posted July 29, 2017 I'm exporting about 2000 caches from a region in the Netherlands and noticed that my Garmin GPS62s only picks up a fraction of the caches. I tried to import the exported GPX in geosphere where I encounter an error. The error message says there are control characters in the description. The cache that had control characters (GC4C3D8) indeed had a ^X and a ^Y in the description. Exporting the GPX file from the geocaching.com website didn't produce the ^X and ^Y characters. After I removed the control characters from that cache, the ones in the same series and another cache (that had ^B among other characters), all 2000 caches loaded fine in my Garmin and in Geosphere. Could the export option automatically filter out possibly offending characters? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cachly does currently do this, so I will have do some some checking into this specific issue. Thanks for reporting! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nic Hubbard 645 Report post Posted July 31, 2017 I have tested GC4C3D8 and it imported correctly into GSAK. Can you send me the GPX that is having issues? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rustywa 1 Report post Posted August 1, 2017 Nic, email sent from within the app as I can't add a GPX or zip to the forum posts. 1 Nic Hubbard reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
