Geocache Description:

Posted coordinates are bogus. Solve the puzzle to determine the right coordinates.

Your mission is to identify the fifteen sound bites within this sound clip and associate them with numbers that will form the coordinate digits. Nothing escoteric, no math involved. All you need is a good ear, and a good memory of some music (or access to someone who does have these things.)

The cache container is an ammo can. At the time of placement it was crammed full with:
  • Fully functional Motorola Star-TAC cell phone, belt clip, charger, car power cord and manuals. Comes complete with instructions for getting it enabled on the Verizon network and a Verizon Free-Up card worth $75 in air time. It's a pay-as-you-go plan and I'm pretty sure sign-up is free. (Considered a FTF item.)
  • Fully functional Nokia 8260 cell phone, leather holster / belt clip, charger, car power cord and manuals. For use on the AT&T network, but I'm not sure they have a pay-as-you-go plan. (Optional FTF or STF item.)
  • A variety of pagers and other telephone related stuff, not completly sure if they are functional or useable.
  • Logbook, Geocaching note, and lots of pens.
You'll know you are at the right cache location if you understand this 2-part sound clip.

When returning the cache to its hiding place, please cover it back up with plenty of nearby camouflage.

Once the large FTF/STF items are gone, I'll probably turn the cache into a music CD trading cache.

Update 7/11/04: I added hints & will add music to the cache soon.
