ah thats right it was 8pm friday. I don't mind, its quite good to hear other cars for a change but some of the VKG operators don't seemt to like the situation much again.

[Longreach]

Gotta love staff shortages. You can expect it more in the future.

[Longreach]

Yeah but that was 36 hours, so that would mean 3 shifts?

[alphamike]

Correct. There were other Sydney channels merged aswell.

[Longreach]

great, is it just restricted to VKG sydney?
