Check out VKS737: The Australian HF Radio & Radio-Telephone Network !

There is also a Codan users yahoo group..apparently

With a bit of luck I'll be having one fitted to

Try your local amateur (ham) radio club. They tend to be very approachable and you should be able to find somebody who knows the gear and is happy to explain how it all works.

CRARC | Main / HomePage these guys may be of use?

Chances are it won't cost you a cent and you will meet some decent, switched on operators.

The group is Codan Outback Radio codan_outback_radio : Discussion of Codan HF Radio

Also while Amateur clubs may have an individual or maybe two who know about Codan, the Codan Outback Radio has many amateurs who know about Codan, as well as hundreds of other Codan users and technicians who are not amateur radio ops.

G'evening, thanks for that. Watts' put me onto VKS-737, I sent off the cheque this morning. I wondered whether a ham radio outfit would be
appropriate as they more or less operate as base stations and I think they
have to be licensed (?) whereas VKS-737 doesn't, at least individually. There is a decent ham outfit operating in the ACT so I might have a chat
with them. G'night ... Ray.

good idea - more info always better
