Don't let the NSW Lib's and Labor loose on them.

The one that sits halfway down Mt Ousley (near Wollongong)has been there 10 yrs - it hasn't made a single infringement notice. You'll have a laugh and head shake when you read why.
Nice read here:

Good!

Point it at the Polair chopper.

No way those things would pass any noise test.

Don't worry they'll all get fines too.
Difference is they probably won't get all precious about it.
