Abstract

The development of wireless technology in Australia has been driven by necessity. Meeting the need to communicate with scattered populations over vast distances, whether to extend a mantle of safety, to rally spirits in times of crisis or simply to unite us and give identity to what is truly Australian, wireless technology has played a vital role in the nation's heritage.
