Mt Hotham is on my list of possible sites, so yeah the height advantage can be acheived:-)
At this stage the most likley candidate sites are:
Hamilton in western Vic (6km from town but it's over a rise, no nearby highway (like Shepparton) either. No lights for about 5km and only a small town then;
Echuca;
Mt Hotham, but the landing fees are high and I think they run 24x7 security lighting;
Anywhere north of Bendigo
