(Preview)

I would think that the battery provides the power an...

Telstra's reduced coverage

Just returned home from four months in the "bush" and I think it pertinent to comment on the seemingly reduced fringe coverage in country areas. I presume this is as a result of the cessation of G3 but do not know if this is so. I have a CelFi amplifier and have made comment elsewhere that we were previo...

I changed it to a picture of a clay figurine that I purchased many years ago. Unique & no copyright I think. SWMBO says it's a goo...
