[MCARC] Repeaterbook

[Nate Bargmann]

In a previous post I mentioned RepeaterBook.  I did a short presentation
on it a few meetings ago.  For those who did not get a chance to see it,
here is a short rundown.

First off, RepeaterBook is a Web site that collates pretty much all of
the information regarding repeaters that is available.  Anyone can
submit repeater information that isn't already listed or update repeater
information.  A volunteer will check over the information and approve it
for inclusion in the database.

You can check out the Web site at:

    https://www.repeaterbook.com/index.php

Besides the Web site, apps for Android and Apple iOS are also offered
(free of charge).  The nice thing about the apps are that when your
location can be determined the repeaters closest to you will be
displayed at the top of the list with more distant ones down the list
for a settable distance.  Updates can also be submitted from the apps.

The site is freely available and seems to be the most up-to-date
information available.

73, Nate
