Usually mounted on front of vehicle/bullbar; 3.5 metres above the ground; need to be flexible so they wobble around; orange flag is easily seen against blue sky. Aerials usually not high enough.

Very important for all sand dune travel whether beach or desert to avoid head-on collisions at the top.

Not a club thing, just a safety thing, but clubs are usually very safety conscious.

You may get one at Bunnings etc. Piece of 1/2" electrical conduit and mount to bullbar. I slip mine into a 6" piece of pipe that bolts into the CB bracket and wrap a bit of 100mph tape to hold it in. Old piece of orange material affixed to top and bob's ya.....It flexes under trees, its all orange, can be disassembled into 2 sections, can be used to get the footy outa the tree, sword fight with the kids, disposable and cheap, in my opinion of course...!
