Hi Don,

That may have been me, I was sidetracked and only realised the bird was
there halfway through the pass, missed my best bit to the NW.

In order to quell the "Bush Lawyers" I called CQ and anounced that I was
transmitting on 435.670 and listening on 145.950 with my beam pointing
at the Eastern Australian coast. Where, for some strange reason, I could
hear my signal comming back at me..

I'll try again termorrer..

Cheers,
       Alan. (ZL2VAL)
