Geocache Description:

New Morse code file to replace the old one. I have increased the difficulty as the code is not computer generated any more and was sent by me using a Heathkit electronic keyer.

The morse code requirements have been dropped for Ham radio. Although it wasn't required for me to get my license when I first became licensed I still decided to learn it and am glad I did! Whether morse code is of interest to you or not, amateur radio has proven to be a fascinating hobby. I've met many fascinating people, locally and all over the world (through the radio) and would urge you to check it out. Please check out some of the links below this description and if you would like some information on becoming a Ham, feel free to email me at gailen.gillespie@gmail.com with any questions! The coordinates are to a nearby parking area. To get the actual coordinates, you will be required to decode some Morse code! The numbers you are looking for are x'd out. Once you have decoded the audio, the coordinates will be in the correct order. Here are the coords...
N 39 02.XXX
W 094 22.XXX

I am starting this cache with some good trade items. I am also placing my first TB in here. Happy caching!
