Geocaching Australia

Hi,

I have the co-ord for the GZ of a puzzle that are in Aus Geo 66 and I have no way to convert them to WGS-84 since I use my mobile phone as my GPS. Found some shareware programs on the web, but nothing simple or free.

Can anyone out there with a "real" GPS convert these co-ords for me please?

Cheers,

According to the Oregon,

So, now I've got the co-ords of a puzzle cache that's too far away to find

OziExplorer will do it, even the free version.

EDIT: I've already solved that one, but haven't been up there with time to find it.

Thanks for that. I eventually found a program called mapgrids that will do it, but only in DMS and decimal degrees. Far too many conversions for me to trust what was going on. Especially away from my home turf.

I am guessing that you are trying to find Sudoko Samba? If I'm right

Let's not spoil it for eveyone!!

I've removed the final co-ords from this thread.

PLEASE keep in mind that posting the final location of puzzle caches is not kosher.

Sorry about that. Should have asked for a PM if someone could help. I WAS careful not to post the name of the cache, but it would have been obvious had someone started poking around.

Real GPS not required.

Do a search for GDAy or GDAit along with the appropriate National66 NTv2 distortion grid.

Well it is the only mystery within Cooee of the final location originally posted!

And in front of all the people who are not even logged in ! Hint hint nudge nudge C@W.

We welcome visitors, logged in or not. That was a decision of free and open policy. Is that what the nudge is about?

Thats what it is about. If a new rule is made it should only apply to new content.

Sorry, shouldn't of writin anything. But I have already worked out the co-ords anyway for the about 2 years ago but havn't gone around too finding it.
