Thank you Bob,
I was at the same latitude as SE Qld, 28 S. A higher latitude doesn't help. The higher the latitude, the more its axis lays down parallel to the horizon. Dark transparent skies are the key. Oh, and it's a big help that there's no light pollution in that direction until Perth 2000km away.
