Noticed a few Repeaters in South West Qld
Boulia,Birdville etc nearly all the area is covered so i decided to just give it a
test , put a call , no response , so in the event of an accident , no help available , put out a call or sel-call a VKS Base and ....yep help on the way , I see it as a personal choice as to what system one wants to use , but I know which I want to use , the one that has good service , and one that has the good old Aussie approach , not some Radio enthusiast in India, or Chicago , also Each service will the good and the not so good, My last statement to this subject is that I was thinking about getting the Foundation Licence but have changed my mind, not because of the posts today but just ..
well I don't think I have the use or room for any more radios , and I just like the welcome I get when I say Quebec 36 calling * * * * base ...over , People I have access to only 1 frequency , the whole of Australia knew I was bogged to the chassis in sand , later in the Day the whole of Australia knew I had extracted it myself and help was not needed , that's good enough for me
