Attention Adventure
Seekers!
IEMSA has joined the hunt and has
activated their first geocache. Geocaching is a real-world outdoor
treasure hunting game. Players try to locate hidden containers,
called geocaches, using GPS-enabled devices and then share their
experiences online. See your April-June 2011 issue of The Voice
for more information.
A Trackable will be added to the site today, Wednesday, May 18. A
Trackable is a cache that moves from place to place, picking up
stories along the way. Be the first to discover the trackable and
send it on its way! The information inside the trackable will focus
on the importance of early recognition of cardiac arrest. IEMSA
hopes to spread this message throughout the upcoming year.
For those of you who plan to join the hunt, we are providing you
with a very special hint: N 41° 33.633 W 093° 49.100.

presently operating radio equipment in the older wideband mode in
these VHF and UHF bands, your equipment must be replaced or modified
