[Scan-DC] Importing Radio Ref Federal Files

[W4NNG]

Hello Mike

If one does a normal web browser step to the District of Columbia radio channels, it's

      US > District of Columbia > District of Columbia > Washington-Baltimore > [Agency list including Feds]


When it's done via RadioReference.com Web Import it's 

     United States  > Dist of Columbia > Dist of Columbia > [Agency List -- but there's no Federal Agencies]

Any idea what the Web Import step thru should be?

tnx  Bob

No, RR has nothing to do with ham stuff - except for Skywarn - in the databases.

As to using the RR import function, you'll have to be a bit more specific in what software you are using. From the 2 I have (I use FreeScan more often), you would first sign on with your userid/password. Then select US from the drop down menu, then select the correct state or region. Each category should have a seperate entry; if it doesn't, then the index for the database needs to be updated. You should check each category you want to download.

I can't check on this while at work, as I'm not allowed to download software here.

Of course, the Park Police only has 4 or 5 frequencies....

Suspect I'm missing something obvious but using the application software 
import function, what is the drop down menu sequence to get the various Fed 
agencies (US Park Police) that are on this page
http://radioreference.com/apps/db/?ctid=315#cid-2653

Also does RR have listing for all the ham radio repeaters?
