The March issue includes other content:

• A Special Interest paper, Growing Australia’s Creative Industry, based on the Australian Broadband Advisory Council’s report from 2022;
• Three papers in the Telecommunications section on technology, security and operations;
• A review of a recent book on Charles Todd and the Overland Telegraph Line.

And the popular reprint from the TJA is back!  This one is from 1971 and concerns the East-West Radio Relay System from Northam in Western Australia to Port Pirie in South Australia.  The reprint triggered Graham Shepherd to provide his Recollections on upgrading the system.
