    Wanted Looking for a big coil

    Excellent! I dropped the price just yesterday. Let me know if you're keen. Yes, the Patch Pro price is ridiculous!

    Wanted Looking for a big coil

    Thanks Ozzie, I had thought of suggesting it but I assume Adelaide wants to swing, not drag ;) What about the 30 X 7 NF Patch Pro? I might be in the market for one of them myself...

    Trip to Clermont: great start... but now a little perplexed?

    Hi Mountaineer. I’m not sure that I would even give it another full day to be honest. 2 hours of gridding, 2 more hours of wider zig-zagging to try and extend the area and if no good, move one. We found 5 ‘1 piece patches’ last year in W.A. and they looked to have either no or very little...

    sat comms in the Pilbara

    Not the Pilbara but was recently in the Leonora/Sandstone/Laverton areas. Used a Zoleo which is only a 2 way text device. It worked perfectly and utilises the Iridium network. Iridium have 66 satellites in their network which is reassuring that if 1 dies there are 65 others still flying...

    GPX 6000 for sale

    The fire sale continues!! GPX 6000. Just out of warranty. Bit of a story to it but gives you a good background. Has worked perfectly for 3 years. Audio update was done last year. Only annoyances for me were fine cracks in the coil ears and one of the batteries was not lasting as long as it...

    I think I can correct myself :) Just Thuraya. Apparently Pivotel look after multiple satellite systems. And from Hippy's article it also seems like ag equipment is directly guided from the sky. https://www.pivotel.com.au/knowledge-base/outages/current-outages.html
