Sorry Peter but how do you get a license?
I have instructed the local constabulary of my rights to use one with my astronomy as a registered member of an astronomy society in NSW, they have asked if I could provide the paperwork to prove such a law exists. I merely pointed out it was their job to know the laws and while I'm not breaking any I'm not chasing it up for them either (politely of course).
I have in the past phoned to let them know I'd be using it that evening, now I don't bother.
I know that seems silly but I'm within a stone throw of a 24 hours McDonald's and I've explained to the police when I've phoned to say I'd be using it if they get a call from some traveller reporting the illegal use of a green laser at 1:00AM to ignore it because it won't end well for them if they come around harassing me over the matter.
There used to be a lot of the local cops knew I played with the telescopes at night, they've probably transferred, retired or I just forget who they were.
