Geocache Description:

Cache is NOT at the posted coordinates.


The leader of the Autobots, Optimus Prime, has a lessen known brother: Modulus Prime-842.

 

Modulus Prime isn't as much of a warrior, but he's very good at math- He can perform exactly 842 mathematical functions.  He helps Optimus with advanced calculations, research, and strategy.  The one area Modulus struggles with is coordinates- Modulus is stuck using a coordinate system from their home planet, Cybertron.

 

Optimus recently asked his brother to help him locate a cache of 842 cubes of Energon in Findlay.  Unfortunately for Optimus, the Cybertorn coordinate system doesn't make sense with Earth coordinate system:

 

5093.846.1178.9345.3407.6566

 

Can you help Optimus and Modulus convert the coordinates to Earth coordinates?  The final readout should be A.B.C.J.K.L (NA B.C, WJ K.L)

 

The final is easy terrain, but it is a decent walk from the nearest street parking to the east.  Although you don't have to leave the sidewalk, be careful of cars depending on the time of day.
