[OZAPRS] VK2 Network news

[stevez at tpg.com.au]

Yes, a bit of a dead-spot around the Goulburn area.
I've got a bit of dirt at Mt Fairy, which is between Queanbeyan and
Goulburn. 
I intend to set up a WIDE/RELAY there (after I've spoken with other
local operators for advice).
I hope to fill in a bit of that Goulburn to Sydney hole, however I'm
probably too south to be of any real use.

As you say, it really needs someone at Goulburn!
