Geocache Description:

From an old Italian friend who was very musical


CACHE IS NOT LOCATED AT THE GIVEN COORDINATES
The last three digits of both the North and West are bogus

To find this little gem, you will need to do some research... unless, of course, you already know my old friend Giulio.

The first piece of information you will want to discover is my old friend's last name. Using a "standard" conversion, change the first three letters of his last name to a three digit number.
Next, determine what the commonly accepted frequency for "Concert Pitch" is.

Subtract the "name" number from the frequency number. Call it freq_minus_name

xxx = given N - freq_minus_name
yyy = given W + freq_minus_name

Cache location is at N 38° 35.xxx W 121° 15.yyy
