If you have - is it useful? Have you had it knocked back? What are the furthest limits for it? (Seem to remember a map of Australia superimposed with a Rorschach test?)
As an ATC I see it almost every day, but only a few times a day max; I can't remember saying not available ever, but I have terminated a few cause I was getting too busy or the aircraft was leaving my chunk and I was to busy to transfer the a/c to the next chunk.
