I thought some might find this interesting. For those that are going to be 
caching in these areas... it might be of interest! For others, just an 
interesting post. I pulled this off the AOPA web site (Aircraft Owners and 
Pilots Association). I never really knew this, but they are going to be 
conducting GPS interference tests during the posted dates and times.

Fort Huachuca, Arizona is one of the effected areas. At the lowest 
altitude... the area in which your GPS could be effected is about 95nm from 
the test site. I would guess there are probably many caches within 95nm of 
Ft. Huachuca. I have not looked at the cache map down there lately, but it 
seems like I remember seeing a bunch of caches down south of that area.

The test states that IFR flights utilizing GPS navigation should not be made 
in these effected areas during the posted dates and times due to GPS 
inacuracy. So, I would guess if you were seeking some of the caches south of 
Ft. Huachuca down there during the posted times.. your GPS might really play 
games with you!!! :)

Just an interesting tidbit. Yall can read the web site more if interested.
