Description
Utilising Wi-Fi feature on your smartphone / tablet device
Upon arrival you will need to turn on your Wi-Fi, and search available networks; only a small number should appear here.
The specific one you are after has an all lowercase, full alphabetic name (no digits), fifteen characters long.
Let's identify some algebraic values...
- α = letter #2, its place within alphabet (1 - 26)
- β = letter #8, its place within alphabet (1 - 26)
- δ = letter #1, count occurrences of it within network name
- q = letter#12, its place within alphabet (1 - 26)
- y = letter #4, its place within alphabet (1 - 26)
- z = letter#15, its place within alphabet (1 - 26)
You will then find the cache container at the following decimal offset...
Posted South + ( α × β ) + δ
Posted East + ( α × q ) + y + z
Container is a mint tin, BYO pen.
Trivia: the infamous Bruce Lee lived at Beacon Hill Rd, Kowloon, Hong Kong.

Out with the family on a day of caching. I had never found this one so it was only me that signed the log.

This was more of a lesson in how to find a beacon cache. All the historical and word references would have passed me by, but I have to appreciate the effort that went into this one.
I had worked out the numbers for this one previously but was muggled out at GZ. Returned here today to make the quick find. Neat set up of the puzzle too!! 
A nice morning and a spare few hours had mrs jinta and I make plans for a cruisy trip northwards to Fremantle. We collected a variety of location based icons including GC, GCA, Sighters and Waymarks. It was fun revisiting places we had previously been to and once again marvelled at the beauty of the places that our hobbies take us to. A big thanks to all the cache owners for the placements and listings, cheers.

After doing the other cache nearby the Chwiliwr, Gwawr and I came up to this cache.
The final ground zero was worked out by Chwiliwr and then off we went.
There was a group of children nearby to ground zero who Gwawr waved to but they were not interested in what we were doing so it was a quick find of the cache by Chwiliwr.
Log was signed and cache returned as found by Chwiliwr.

On my last day off and decided to get a few caches, so headed to Kings Park, Nedlands and then freo.
Had to check on a couple of caches as well while in the area. I went to this cache and got the numbers but they did not add up. so i got a small hint from Co and went to the area and went looking for the cache. It was ironic at the first object i looked at i noticed something that attracted my attention and sure enough it was the cache. Thanks for the cache Lazarus 68. I spent 1 day a week for a year or two studying Tourism and Guiding just above the park at Challenger. Have been across this park many many times to the bus stop.
Oh and i can claim the FTF for a blank log sheet.
