Re: [chirp_users] Radioreference Data

There's nothing there for RadioReference - Repeaterbook and RFinder are there, however.
Does it check to see whether you have a subscription? TIA...Mike

It's only available in daily builds later than 2012-04-11.

It will prompt for username and password and if you don't have a subscription no data will be returned.

also, for one of the import options (and i think it's the radioref one--sorry, not at my computer) you need to install an additional python module. i'm unsure if this is a special requirement to the mac or not. i haven't yet tried to install the module because i have other ways of referencing the rr db which don't require any extra tweaking.
