slacsteve Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 (edited) What does this mean? "The cache is not at the posted coordinates. Solve: A = 20.29275 AC = 175.40975 BC = 100.00000." It is not apparent to me what I do with the three numbers A B C in order to find the cache. added: GC17T8P Edited October 26, 2008 by slacsteve Quote Link to comment
+trainlove Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 I don't think anyone will solve this puzzle for you. Quote Link to comment
+Sandy Hams Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 There must be more to the cache description than what you have typed. There has to be a way to arrive at the numbers represented by the letters A, B and C. If someone had the GC number and could look at the full description perhaps then you could get some help but I agree with the last posting -- no help with what you have given. Quote Link to comment
+BlueDeuce Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 What does this mean? "The cache is not at the posted coordinates. Solve: A = 20.29275 AC = 175.40975 BC = 100.00000." It is not apparent to me what I do with the three numbers A B C in order to find the cache. What this means is that although the cache listing has coordinates you won't find the cache there. I would have to assume that it's a puzzle cache that you have to do or solve something to get the correct coords. If you can tell me which cache it is I could confirm that for you. I'm sure we can give you an idea of a likely approach to solving the cache without giving anything away. Quote Link to comment
+vw_k Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 It looks like a mathematical problem, you know the value of A, and from that can work out the value of C, then B. I presume once you know the values of A, B and C you can work out the co-ordinates. Some puzzle caches can be very difficult, there are lots near me that I haven't bothered trying to work out, some though just take some basic maths or research and give you a great sence of achievement once you've cracked the code.

How to apply it is up to you. Doug VE7RXC I haven't figured it all myself... but I know where to fiddle. Quote Link to comment
7rxc Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 I was correct... the hint is the key... like we didn't know! I do seem to be a bit out of practice though... Good luck again, let us know when you find it or not! Doug VE7RXC PS I did not find the cache itself, just a solution! Quote Link to comment
