Yes Aaron, great records. Graham Bamford posted a video of one below his deck: visit the Bywong and Wamboin Hub Facebook page and search on Rosenberg.
People who have lived in Wamboin & Bywong, just 20 km from Black Mountain Tower, are often bemused when others say that Rosenberg's is a rarity. We know that its population is at risk, but out here it seems to be a well established resident.
