Looking for some help breaking a code

    NZ airforce is operating a special challenge. (You could sign up and compete but only NZ residents can win - http://www.airforcespecialops.co.nz/index.html) As I have completed each challenge I have found a letter or number clue towards the final location. There are 8 challenges left, so presume 8 letters or numerals to come.

    The letters spell out words -but I can't work out the significance of the numerals.

    I have tried binary, hex, and base 64 (not that I'm good with these things but I used a translator).

    Perhaps some of the numerals relate to latitude/longitude - but it doesn't seem to... perhaps some are alpha/numeric exchange? I'd like to get a heads up on this and so start decoding the clue. I am hoping someone in here is good at this kind of thing??

    This is the code so far:
    41GO162H212E17R3E17G _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (8 to come)

    I can see "Go here g " leaving 41, 162, 212, 17, 3, 17. They are given one letter at a time so there is no way to know where the breaks are e.g. it could be 4 1 or 41.

    I'd love some help on this :)

    Coordinates perhaps?

    Just a thought, but the first 3 almost could be Lat/Long type coodrinates. Lattitude/Longitude are based as Line, Minute, Second. Or some sort of GPS codes.

    Just my thoughts, may want to run a google search for Lat/Long interpreters or GPS interpreters.

    Yeah, I hope it's not GPS - some forum posts over there about GPS - I don't have one, so I hope now. I tried the latitude/longitude but according to me it is off the coast, in the sea - unless I've done it wrong.

    Thanks for ur suggestions..
