Nah, free cams are not profitable.
Major WA upgrade booked in to happen in a few weeks time, now that we can finally travel interstate. Just waiting on a few more parts to arrive from our OS supplier.
Thanks for your patience.

Hi Ben, just curious, are there no specific tech people you can use who are based in Perth/Sou’west to do this work or is it simply cheaper to fly in & fly out?

Fair enough then, costs must be ridiculous if there is no local option for maintenance on the equipment.

Cough up ya tight arse. It costs bugger all.
haha nah mate everything is subscription based these days and I hate it! Not saying swellnet doesn't deserve it but it's just too overwhelming when sorting out finances.

Depends on the amount of work required. Small jobs are easier/cheaper to get someone local, but this is a big job requiring a few people.
Mate I don’t know your situation but it’s like $90 a year. I mean no disrespect by this but I’ll pay it for you if need be. Happy to.

appreciate the offer Seeds, really do, situation is going backwards for me lately but I'm not a charity case yet! You're right in that it's bugger all though, I'll snap it up when I'm in a better position, got a bit of a possibly unbased phobia of subscription services after watching my savings getting slowly chewed up haha
will there ever again be a useful camera at any WA swell magnets that isn't paywalled or broken?
Scarborough cam might as well be a Swan River cam, Margie's cam is borked more often than not.
Surely free cams are profitable with the right advertising? or nah?
