Very interesting to see the location, antennas and the gear.
When I worked for Airservices I saw some pix of their Mt. Barrow (I think) site in Tassie, and noted a carport there had what looked like railway sleepers on the roof, for falling ice protection
Hi Damien,
This is just one of the less advanced sites. Next site visit (when it thaws out), I show the more detailed one.
Yes the AS site on Mt Barrow was a good one when we had VK7RAA there. One of our sites has the same grating you see over gutters/drain pits all on the roof to break up the ice. Unfortunately, they aren't electrically bonded very well, so you get little diode effects everywhere causing desense noise.
