I didn’t know you had to subscribe to that.  I’ll try that and see what happens.

Thanks Jim.

Hi Kenny,

 

I think the issue is that there is no “Chesapeake” selection for

"County:". The closest choice is "Chesapeake city, VA" for which there

are probably no repeaters. I don't know if this is a mistake in CHIRP

or the RepeaterBook API.

 

If go to RepeaterBook.com, sign up for a free account, then you can go

to Chesapeake County and export the (3) 2 meter repeaters and (2) 70

centimeter repeaters as a CHIRP compatible CSV file and import that

into CHIRP.
