+Desert_Warrior Posted June 11, 2003 Share Posted June 11, 2003 175 Countries have geocaches in them !!!!! We had a thread that started at 150 contries. But I thought 175 deserved a new thread. Congratulations to the Geocaching team! Great job guys! Thanks. Now back to work. (Planet should be checking in here soon). Mike. Desert_Warrior (aka KD9KC). El Paso, Texas.

It is a previous posting, with links to places that recognize this. I am sorry, but my data is flawed. I am a ham radio operator. For us, if an island is more than 500 miles from the mainland (has to do with radio wave propogation) it is considered a separate country. For hams, there are nearly 300. For real sovern nations, I do not remember. Check out the link, it will take you there. Mike. Desert_Warrior (aka KD9KC). El Paso, Texas. Citizens of this land may own guns.

+Renegade Knight Posted June 11, 2003 Share Posted June 11, 2003 In the 80's there were about 180 countries. There are more now especially since the Soviet Union spawned a couple. Leave it to a ham guy <poke, poke> to make the problem more complicated before they come up with the answer. 193 give or take.
