When the repeaters are sorted by range (after an update) instead of one continuous list of low to high range they are sorted in 3 lots of low to high (ie L-H L-H L-H) making it awkward to quickly find all the closest repeaters without lots of scrolling up and down the list as the list gets reset to top after an update.

Hi,

Nice app, thank you for writing it, it has already proved to be useful. Think I may have found a database error with the half-channel repeaters (such as GB3JB) where the frequency doesn’t show the full freq.

GB3JB is on 145.7875, which the app showed as 145.788. I updated the freq to 145.7875, and all was well. I wonder whether your database import went wrong somewhere.

One or three suggestions for changes/improvements:

1. Allow the user to manually update the list, rather than having to wait 30 secs.
2. Add in cell-based location info. This would improve battery life and should be good enough for most purposes.
3. Add the ability to filter according to repeater band. I have a quadbander in the car (70/2/6/10), but a dualband handy for out and about (70/2) so it would be nice to not list the 23cms ones.

I’m running it on a Motorola Milestone.

Cheers,

Lee

Comment on R1155A Receiver by DAVID ANDERSON

DAVID ANDERSON — Mon, 04 Oct 2010 18:30:37 +0000

I have acquired an R1155 in reasonable condition but It has been converted by the addition of an external power supply unit.Unfortunately the external PSU is missing and all that is visible is the circular Bulgin socket in the front panel which it used to connect to.
Does anyone have any diagrams to build a new external PSU or information if they can be picked up from somewhere?

Noel,
A suggestion for your map… can you read in the region and set the marker colour accordingly? Or, if you know of one that already does this, can you point me towards it please?
