A normal amateur call produces zero results because their locations are addresses and not AMG coordinates.. (unlike all radiocom (including cellular) and broadcasting facilities.)
I then tried vk4rbn - again zero results. Tried VK4RBN (ie upper case) and it found the Brisbane repeater. It appears auto-capitalisation is not active.
It works for beacons too. Tried VK4RTT and it located it.
Not too sure how effective a tool it will be for amateurs as against the basic ACMA Register searches that I have done up to now.
