in April 2003 in conjunction with the new ACIF Code - Deployment of
Radio Communications Infrastructure.
The RFNSA provides a listing of all new mobile telephone base station
facilities built or upgraded since April 2003. Over time the RFNSA
will provide a listing of all the mobile telephone base stations in
Australia.
