[QUOTE="Nightjar, post: 463043, member: 1414"] Geezer, Forget about Optus in the West goldfields towns, by the time you reach the Welcome sign (5km's out of town) you lose reception. Yagi aerial and Telstra we get reception up to 70ms. (Remember Telstra quotes 95% coverage, that actually means 95% of populated areas. :P ) With the recovery of gold old & new mines will re-open and they usually have a tower you can tap into. Made my own Yagi, works a treat details below; [url=https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/doc/member-docs/1414/1546732895_yagiantennafabrication.pdf]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/doc/member-docs/1414/1546732895_yagiantennafabrication.pdf[/url] [/QUOTE]
