Do you want to do it for me? smile.gif
Not sure how many houses there are in the region I'm covering but I think it would be up around the 10s of thousands at least! Individually placed, makes for some long hours!

Haha - thats what a lot of people think about radar controllers Nick - that we're pasty white from being stuck in dark, windowless buildings all day laugh.gif !! But I can assure you there are a few windows to look out of!! And you're right - Oceanic is in the building right below Auckland tower - if you Google Earth it you'll see it just north of the tower, which is attached through a short covered walkway.........
