I realise it's an arc, but I just measured off the total distance to see how much was missing.
Saddle mountain radar is in a fairly good spot, but Weipa is on a pole at 25 metres at the A/P which is 19 mt AMSL, so maybe not so reliable at or beyond 256 km's.
Maybe BoM would rather show coverage they know is accurate, than be abused for data that's not too accurate. Who knows.
The visible sat imagery, (or the infrared after dark), would give some idea of what's happening in the blank spots.
