I can add another two. I reckon I (David Wheeler) am the tall bloke in the hat and sunnies above the aperture of the blue scope. The bloke to the left with the hat and 'IAS' tee-shirt (Illawarra Astronomical Society) is Peter MacKinnon. I remember that there were a couple of blokes besides Mark there who worked for AOS - one called Andew perhaps?
Despite the impression this picture would give my memory is of constant cloud and frequent rain. I have some pictures taken on a walk Peter and I did where visibility was down to 200m. I've been back a few times since (as a tourist) and generally had cloudy weather. I reckon I know why the AAT wasn't put there.
