[T]he unavoidable inclusion of private airstrips or fields which were previously outside the CTAF, which would require aircraft to now carry radio.
Clearly this is an overstatement of the current situation in that radio is only mandated at Reg, CERT and a few other CTAFs ...which are mainly those with RPT.

Within 20 NM around Shepparton, we have a number of unmarked, low use airstrips which would become radio required because they fell within the volume of the CTAF and all would be using 118.8, not 126.7.

But what would happen at Wahring? Currently within 10 NM of Mangalore but also within 20 NM of Shepparton.

As I'm flying the 29 NM from Shepp to Mangalore, do I change frequency at 20 NM FROM Shepp or when 20 NM from Mangalore?

OMG...what a clusterfark!

I suppose they will fix it by mandating ADSB for VFR.
