  6. The Nova Scotia part of the tour has been hidden ( and no caches close to it this time!!) I am holding my breath.. the cachers down here have been laying out caches like crazy!!!

     

    I am working on the HTML now and should be ready to post..

     

    Let us know when we can send it to the approvers!

     

    "Great White North Geotour - Historic Halifax" will be up soon!!!!!

  7. Thanks Everybody!

     

    I now have my radio (Yaesu VX-6R) and have been having fun with it!

     

    I will be looking to check into the Geocaching Nets once I find out how to access them. I have echolink installed but have not really spent any time with it.

  8. Not the only holdups....

     

    Sorry, I have picked out a couple good spots and when I went to place I found new caches were placed there.

     

    I have another good spot I will be heading to tomorrow and I am crossing my fingers that is isn't taken.

  9. I was thinking about doing a New Hampshire coin as well.. It is one of my favorite places to vacation!

     

    Being from Boston, Mass is was a quick trip to the mountains!

     

    Now living in Nova Scotia it is a little longer drive!!

     

    I would love to add one of these coins to my collection. If no one from NH is going to do one I may go ahead and produce one.

  10. I wrote the Basic test and got a high enough mark to get access to the HF freq as well!

     

    Once my radio comes in I will be listening for other Ham/cachers out there!
