While I was out completing "A Cache of Palindromes" and "Prime Choices" I noticed that both WAAS channels in my GPS receiver had satellite reception.
Beim Cachen in Berlin-Brandenburg hatte ich endlich nicht nur die berühmten D's sondern auch eine Kamera zur Hand.
Danke für den Cache.

Did this one a month back at the Regional Park in Castroville, TX. WAAS certainly adds to the accuracy. TFTCI've been trying to log this for months. A new digital camera did the trick. I was finally able to capture a clear image of the Ds.
Some reason my log was deleted after finding this reverce cache a few monts ago so I am submiting it again.This from my driveway.
Waited to do this one at night to get a nice picture without reflections off the GPSr's screen. Lots of "D"s and the WAAS satelite is #35 in green. Easy cache, perfect for a cold night, I didn,t have to get out of the car!
Thanks for the cache!

Finally able to complete this one during a caching trip to Chicago area on Saturday. Noted great reception in this area. TFC Peoria Bill :>)
Out with Peoria Bill on a chicago caching trip. We all got 12-locks this day in one of the suburbs.
In downtown Waukesha WI this morning. We experienced pockets of great signals .. here is my photo to show we got within 10 feet, with all D's showing! Garmin 60CS
Hallo Leute, hallo Jever,
ein richtiger Neujahrscache, da ja WAAS/Egnos in 2005 endlich komplett aktiviert werden soll!
Wir machten dies Photo am 31.12.2004 an einem super Cache mit dem Namen "GC-Stauseelauf"!
Dieser Cache liegt in der Nähe von Glauchau in Sachsen, die das Autokennzeichen GC haben!
Danke für diesen Cache,

Saw that my GPS was getting great WAAS signal out in the desert driving tonight. Snapped a couple of quick photos of my GPS. 7 ft. position error at 84 MPH...not bad.

With WAAS enabled on my Magellan Meridian Gold, I was surprised to see a W for WAAS in The suburb of Berwick, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
I decided to grab the digital camera and photo it for interest. The Lat/Lon screen did have WAAS but I forgot to let the GPS settle for the picture.

Got this reading on my new GPS today. Had all twelve with D's once, but lost it before I got the camera out.
Just inland from Hokitika, on the West Coast of NZ's South Island. This is the most D's that I've ever seen on my GPS (4).
