VFR flight in WA - advice

I have looked at the AIP and NAIPS websites, but still have a few questions:

1 SARTIME: How should the alerting time be calculated if departing a non towered airfield out of mobile phone coverage?

2 Are there any flight guides published for WA which give basic data (rwy orientation, length, slope, surface, elevation, approach/departing obstacles) for those minor and private airfields which appear on WAC charts but which are not listed in the AIP.

3 What is the best source of info for Danger Areas outside the VNC area(status hot/cold, controlling agency). I only found restricted areas on the NAIPS website.

4 What is the lowest altitude for VHF Flight Information service within 150nm of Perth. Ditto for flight following (radar service)

5 Joining Circuits: Is it correct (VFR Guide) that base leg joins are not permitted (subject to traffic)

6 Bush fires are presumably notamed and don't cover big areas quickly? What typical lateral and vertical distance needed to remain vfr?

All comments/advice welcome
