I wonder if Telstra will be setting up extra mobile cells in Cairns like they did for the Melbourne Cup last week?

The Telstra service at Mt Carbine is very limited. The webcam there was first installed to run off NextG, but it would only upload every so often, then i was forced to use the pubs internet.
Looking at the coverage maps, but i think the Mt Carbine reception comes from Deep Gorge, Mareeba
