Licences for repeaters & beacons are now streamlined

Australian Communications and Media Authority licence applications for Amateur Radio repeaters and beacons are now handled differently to speed up issuing and reduce errors that may occur.

All applications for Amateur Radio repeaters and beacons had caused a problem in its software, due to the unique nature of the applications.
