Hi Bo
Grid locator is OG71ih
I've not heard it in Perth but has been spotted in JA several times in last few weeks.

Thanks Nigel. I also have seen it reported several times lately, but it didn't show up on the map. So I have now added it to the ON4KST chat database.

According to VKSpotter, it is "A moxon pointing to the east"
