Geocache Description:


This cache combines some of my favorite hobbies: amateur radio and geocaching.  I'll try to put some radio related trinkets in the cache from time to time.  You do not need any amateur radio equipment, license, or knowledge to find this cache. 

You can find the cache from the sidewalk on the 4 lane public street.  You do not need to go into the neighborhood or onto private property.  The best parking is at the nearby school or the park across the street.  There are crosswalks north and south of the cache, please be careful and use them. 

OPTIONAL, extra fun: For the curious at heart you can also find the cache by going to the aprs.fi website and searching for N6RFI-15  That will also show the approximate location.  Or...(coordinates are fun) you can find the ///trials.planet.bothered coordinates using the what3words.com website or their smartphone app.  Or just click on this link: https://w3w.co/trials.planet.bothered

I hope you enjoy the cache, the park, and the little stroll.
