    At least this reports that VAST is working.

    Black spot issues in Ouyen and Robinvale were resolved with new transmitters and more than 100 VAST satellite set-top boxes have been installed in remote areas.

    Yes Gordon as far as i know from a terrestrial antenna installer from the Mildura area......criteria is you need to be more than 45Klms from a transmitter/translator or a letter with i presume measurements stating there is no adequate signal..... Maybe another Antenna or satellite installer from that area (Mildura) or regional SA the next area to switch could verify that information.

    Cheers
