- For
- Amateur radio operators who enjoy geocaching
- Worth noticing
- A cache find is marked radio-verified only when a receiving station hears the hunter’s APRS position beacon near it.
Field notes
The proposed workflow supports single-location caches as well as trails of stages, with hunters choosing a cache and approaching while their APRS position beacon is active. The page also describes logging through the app, by radio, or offline. These are project plans rather than publicly usable features: the site labels the project in development and says there is no public instance.
