Unfortunately there is so little Astro gear for amateurs made in Australia as 'we' simply cannot compete with the manufacturing costs of o/s factories, esp China, Taiwan et al. Gary's Wildcard Innovations being one exception with their product being the standout in DSCs.
Still, I would hate to see the day when local shops like Bintel, myastroshop A.E.C. etc did not exist as we would then be at the mercy of o/s retailers.
