Geocache Description:

***** The above Co-Ords are Bogus*****
The cache is in small park, near Takapuna. Bring some bread for the ducks. There is a playground nearby for the kids.

The cache is a Realtree Camo 250ml screwtop container with the usual goodies as well as logbook and pencil.

While testing my new Police Scanner I overheard the local HQ discussing something about the wereabouts of another one of those darn Geocaches on their patch.

I managaed to decode most of the transmission and made out

S 36.47.SSS

E 174.46.EEE

Then I had to write down the rest due to static, this is what I got:

Sierra:
Foxtrot, Oscar, Uniform, Romeo.
Sierra, Echo, Victor, Echo, November.
Tango, Hotel, Romeo, Echo, Echo.

Echo:
Zulu, Echo, Romeo ,Oscar.
November, Indigo, November, Echo.
Tango, Hotel, Romeo, Echo, Echo.
