frequencies for 2007 confirmed
I called the local organisers and they made out as if it's a state secret!
Called CASA, they didn't know. ACMA won't say as the Red Bull people asked them to keep it secret.
Just who do these **** people think they are????
Scanner picked up traffic today on 127.9 and 120.85, as numloxxx has also recently posted on the aviation band topic.
Cheers.
