#GA4937 - 14:45; Arrived back in Dee Why after a drive through the Northern Beaches and had time for one last stop before heading into the city. Managed to confirm the actual CORS as opposed to the microwave link once I found a path to a hiogher perch! TFTT Geocaching Australia

I'm glad I saw Baktrak's photo before I came here, otherwise I would have assumed that the thing I saw from street level was the CORS. It only took a few seconds to realise that I had to get up higher for the right view...so up I went.

Actual *FTF* of actual CORS, not some link antenna, at 9:55am. You need to know where this one actually is to be able to actually see it.
Dome has "Leica" imprinted in recesses around perimeter and equipment label on underside (visible in full resolution) pic. Are these really trigs though? They're listed as such by the NSW Surveyor General so I guess that counts.

Competing a long time running series required driving past the council building. Parking right out front! FTF on this trig though I'm actually wondering if the structure art GZ is a CORS or Microwave link? I couldn't see anything else resembling the usual dish.
