1. I suggest John Tserkezis, 3:712/610.  He is an AUST_AVTECH participant
from way back.

2. To get your node number, you have to send a crashmail message to the NC
in your area.  To find out what area you are in, FREQ the nodelist and do a
search for your suburb or nearby.  You're most likely to be in net 711 or
712, simply because they're the most common in Sydney.  711 is North, 712
is somewhere else (South?).

You can log directly onto John's BBS if you want, get the number from the
nodelist, in case the netmail capabilities disappear (although I guess
netmail to 712/610 won't disappear, since he polls me directly!).

Remember that I may not disappear, it's not under my control.  BFN.  Paul.
