If you know the when the Australian forces are leaving, I may try to find them on HF. Here is what I found on the RAAF: *Australian/New Zealand Air Force 1. The Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF/Royal New Zealand Air Force 2. The AOCS network consist of six Air Operations Communications A. A General Purpose Net (GPN) on which all AOCCs guard the same three GPN Frequencies: The RAAF and RNZAF share 8974 with the Spanish Air Force, and 5687 with Dscrete frequencies AOCS Callsigns

The following information comes from the Enroute Supplement Australia
(ERSA) a publication jointly published by the Royal Austrialian Air Force
and Airservices Australia, February 26, 1998 edition, Nav/Comm 1.
(RNZAF) Air Operations Communications System (AOCS) is a high frequency
radio network providing communications services for the operational
control of RAAF/RNZAF aircraft and HF equipped marine craft [army ground
stations are also commonly heard]. In addition, visiting military
aircraft may use the AOCS when contact with Australia/New Zealand
military authorities is required. The AOCS is not part of, and does not
provide, an air traffic control service, civil or military.
Centres (AOCCs) located at Sydney, Darwin, Townsville, Perth, Auckland
[NZ] and Woodbourn [NZ]. The combined AOCS provides:
frequencies. All AOCCs can transmit and receive on these three
frequencies simultaneously.
B. Discrete frequencies are available (if required) at each AOCC and
allocated after initial contact on the GPN.
C. Telephone patch facilities between aircraft and ground appointments.
D. Continuous monitoring of military distress frequency 5696 kHz.
E. Selective Calling (SELCAL): Available to suitably equipped aircraft.
