Re: Sydney area Taxis

CTCSS for Katoomba is 123Hz - a little fairy tells me that their frequency will probably disappear in a few years time as they migrate to computers and the mobile network.

Re: Forbidden

It would be nice if we started making more use of Google Spreadsheets on these forums. Could put freq lists in a spreadsheet and allow multiple authors and moderate any submissions.

Although I can't see any lookup systems where I can automate the submission... so I may have to make this user contributed.

Re: Improving the CASA air rego database

The trouble is Flightradar24 don't display all the possible data. I'm also intending to link to airlines.net, jetphotos.net, planepictures.net, planespotters.net, airfleets.net & data.flight24.com Also Flightradar24 don't display any images on the same page as rego info.

Improving the CASA air rego database

I was thinking about how I could improve the CASA air registration database so I've started to implement my own lookup tool.

Silent activity on 10130?

Some kind of issue?
