I'm told the guy was doing lines of cocaine and got cut off at the bar. After kicking over somebodies bins, how he gets lost in suburban type streets is a mystery. In my books, the guy is a douche. </2 cents>

Something aint right with this one and why all the resources and expense. Heard them searching up near Medlow Bath today. Where to next?

I was told there was a post on here about a job I was involved in, so I joined:
The SES used mainly 468.625 on a portable repeater located on a hill in Leura. The GRN was basically useless in coverage for the area searched on portable radios.
Facebook as a photo of the comms trailer in situ

GRN was really used by crews coming/going into the area.

I find it interesting and wonder why people come up with stories of where and what happened with the victim.... bit annoying but taken with a grain of salt.
I have been involved in this stuff since 1981 and for this search appropriate resources where deployed and used. In fact the operation was more efficient than others I have attended to in the past.
