G'day G'day. Have you had the fire up the wire, the wattage from the cottage and were doing the JOB? If you were on 27 MHz late morning Christmas Eve 2022 chances are you or someone you spoke to will be on this video. I'm receiving from the eastern side of Port Phillip Bay, about 30km south of Melbourne using a handheld loop antenna.
