[MLB-WIRELESS] World Wifi record

We have a small problem

After playing with Google earth for a wile I worked out how to follow along 
the line of sight from mountain to mountain

Unfortunately the topography is sufficiently high to the west of Melbourne 
to block line of sight from Mt Dandenong to Mt Buninyong.

I also tried Mt Alexander, near Harcourt, to Mt Dandenong but same problem.

cheers Peter
