I have been doing pocket quieries for years and all of the sudden I can't do it any more! Is it just me and old age... yeah right... or are other people having this problem?

You have to spell queries correctly or they will fail. ;) Sorry, had to say it.

You might scan over my All Unfound Maine Caches in Multiple PQs (http://www.geocachingmaine.org/forum/showthread.php?t=2260) article too see where you might have made a mistake.

Otherwise, you can post what criteria you are using and maybe we can see what needs to be done.

Regardless, if you use the trick of previewing your PQs before having them sent to you, it will prevent wasting your PQs.
