I would like to have a custom filter which I could apply to the Days Since Last Found stat

Certainly need to limit those reported to those not found during last 365 days.
County selection might produce too many values so might need the filter(s) to batch multiple regions.
Ultimate aim is to send all unfound for 365 days to Virtual GPS and then export to csv file.

I have no knowledge of how custom filters are constructed so asking advice here.
Particular country I'm interested in is the United Kingdom which seems to be bloated with those unfound for a long period and can not be viewed or exported as one entity.

AFAIK there's no way to do this with a custom filter. What I would do is to use the filters in the top list to get fewer results and then add those to the virtual GPS (or virtual GPSes as you'll max out the list).

For example, for Yorkshire you're adding the top 1341 if you're doing it today. For West Midlands you're adding the top 1298 and so on. For most areas it will be enough to just do them region by region. If a region has more than 10k you can get creative with Hidden date, D/T or cache type. For example first checking all traditional caches in the area and then checking all other cache types together to hopefully get to less than 10k in each search.
