I wonder why they took it down. Seems a bit of an over reaction. :wink: A few different sites is a good thing.

pitty I can not find one working at the moment.

He he that would of been funny to see. If the Pt. Augusta boy's are smart i would be getting some unoffical currency out of the coppers to get them out of the mud in the way of a carton or two of something!

would think they were probly taken down by whoever due to it being illegal to re-broadcast such things... ?

alex you shouldn't use words like "illegal" unless it's true and when it comes to the subject of pager decoding and publishing or rebroadcasting (2 different things by the way), and scanner rebroadcasting, it's very grey indeed.  I don't believe any of the above are illegal (despite what your boss may tell you) but the fact is until there is a test case and a judge decides one way or the other it's all speculation.

calm down david....

ill reword it then "it contrevens the commonwealth telecommunications act...."

is that better?


doesnt really bother me either way, and im not having a go at anyone... was just making a statement there.

Can we get back to the ammusing pager messages please?

If you wanna discuss the legalities of pager messages take it to a new topic.

yeah...that should occur.

I recieved a few pager messages yesterday morning....one of them was new...but i think sumone forgot to clear the "outbox" in there paging program...and resent page messages dating bak from early april hehe.

Amusing like this Camo?

http://www.sacfs.org/paging is up

Not any more. That website says:
This has been removed due to the URL being posted to a public web forum.


Pity, I rather liked it.

LAME

Blame that w......r in Port Lincoln for the news story about the pager sites,and hence their removal :roll:

The pager site from Victoria was removed last year due to legal action that was going to be taken by the state government......

  :oops: Im getting withdrawal symptoms  :oops:

I cured my pager site withdrawal.
I'm now on the patch:

Instructions for use:
Cut out, stick on arm, and wait for abuse from fellow brigade members...

 :lol:

UPDATE:All pager sites have been removed after the Telecommunications Ombudsman contacted the Crown Solicitors office in relation to the sites breaching the Act.The rest is history so maybe everyone should get a patch  :lol:

That's a shame when im at work it was a way of seeing whats going on. Oh well i'm just waiting for work to ban this site from our work computers because of the whole forum thing.

Typical just need some goose to ruin it for everyone else!

Care to elaborate?

Im sure there is more to the story and this is only what someone high up mentioned in passing, and the Vic sites suffered the same fate.

Yes, please do, someone offers the reason and you say its wrong, why is it wrong, sounds like a good enough reason to me, although having seen the Pt Lincoln nuffers site, I wouldn't be to happy having my name attached to pager messages going back and forth, if only it had been left as just messages , but some people take it to far!

for various reasons, no sorry.  Although I will point out the telecomms ombudsman has nothing to do with it, see http://www.tio.com.au/ for what they do.

if the owners of the paging sites want to post about what's up with their particular site then that's up to them.

Hey lads dont shoot the messenger :roll:

If you want to know more contact the guys who had the sites shut down

its baaaack
