repeaterbook.com autocomplete doesn't work in North America

Open jancona opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

I'm in the US and the Repeaterbook autocomplete doesn't work for me. Evidently the repeaterbook.com database is segmented between US, Canada, Mexico and the rest of the world. It appears that QDMR is using the https://www.repeaterbook.com/api/exportROW.php endpoint, where ROW stands for "rest of world." For North America, "https://www.repeaterbook.com/api/export.php?callsign=KS1R" works.

It appears the only US, Canada and Mexico are in the separate database. Caribbean and Central American countries are in the ROW database. So you might be able to use the callsign prefix to choose the endpoint, but a checkbox in Settings might be easier.
