[chirp_users] RepeaterBook Proximety Not Accurate?
Hello Chirpers;
I have a question. I am trying to program repeaters into a Kenwood TMV7. I have been using RepeaterBooks Proximity search. When setting a Manhattan zip code for example, it doesn’t seem to matter if I indicate a 100 mile radius or a 300 mile radius. It only seems pull about a 15 miles radius. Is there a default that won’t allow a larger range?

Using "Import from data source", "Location" = 10001 and "Band" = "2 meters (144MHz)", I the following numbers of repeaters are retrieved.
Distance: # of repeaters 15: 50 100: 367 300: 1387
