I'm closer to the airport than you with good height, albeit without the ocean view. Maybe it's something we can test out during the planned Open ADS-B Workshop?!
Speaking of which, would you and Brad be interested in coming? We've gathered interest from most of the other Sydney PlanePlotter sharers, so the group get-together is looking more and more positive.

If you're using FlightDisplay to control how the Flight Routes display in Basestation for a particular aircraft; then using SQLite as a basic database editor, you can quickly and easily edit any of those routes that may be displaying in Basestation as incorrect. Flight Display uses the FD7 database offline to store the routes it collects from it's various internet sources.

Often where Flight Display gathers its route info from (internet) can be slow to update real world route changes across a network or operator, which can then lead to outdated routes showing in Basestation for various flights. This way you can manually update the FD7 route database to keep your Basestation up to date if you see any discrepencies.

Noel might be able to add more.

Hi Brad, I haven't yet made the move to the SBS3 as my current location and requirements don't warrant an upgrade. But if I do, I'll make contact with you so we can reach out to Wimo direct.
I have often navigated to the purchase page, but then get this hesitant mouse stutter when I hover over the 'Purchase Now' button, lol.
