challenge checker doesnt work with a basic member account, but it works with a premium account

Question

Hello, 

I have two challenge checkers [GCAA9Y2; GC9A7Z5] which are not working using a PGC authenticated GC Basic Member account. I would like to query the result of the challenge of the Basic Member. However, if I use a GC Premium Account for authentication at PGC, the checker query for the Basic Member result query works. So I think it isnt a specific issue of the checker, although a general problem. Perhaps the problem arises once it goes around the earth and there is a coordinate reversal at 180° longitude. But this is only a guess without knowing the technical circumstances. 

Could you please take a look at this and coorigine if necessary. Thank you very much.

If the person running the checker is not premium, premium caches will not have coordinates. Some checkers are not well-enough programmed to be able to handle this. That would be a problem with that specific checker that you need to raise with the author of that checker.
